Democrats Defeat Cloture Push in Senate Fight
Washington December 6 Democrats dispose of the cloture proposition by referring it to the Rules Committee for revision of the senate rules. A partisan rule was defeated as conservatives led the caucus, with Senator Clarke of Arkansas proposing opposition and 43 senators rising. The action largely kills the cloture issue for the present and signals no immediate partisan measure passage amid strained relations and looming leadership contests.
