    They voted on the DODD AMENDMENT in the senate .

    They explained it on Fox news

    Trust me when i say I didnt need any more clues.

    Maybe we should go back to the old style of selecting Senators. Make them a political appointment of the state Govenor again. 1 Republican or Independant and 1 Democrat or Independant.
