9. This hopefully will be a story in the press
and shows not all repukes support the "party". That way, some coverage of the dems not all supporting the "party" position can be balanced.

10. I'm wondering if McCain made a deal to not oppose cloture in return
for Dub supporting his anti torture amendment.

Although I've heard they're secretly revising the army manual to redefine torture etc.
