"We’re just four votes away from prevailing on the cloture vote. THis thing could unravel in the senate."

You are thinking of the final vote to amend and send back to the House. The cloture vote was 79 to 19. We lost badly. This will rise or fall on Boehner's willingness to stand on some ground, almost any ground, and Reid's intransigence in saying he will not accept anything but a clean CR as passed by the Senate.
