MSNBC: Democrats Don’t Have the Votes to Stop Betsy DeVos Nomination

‘It’s very hard for me to see that there is anyone else out there’

EXCERPT:

CILLIZZA:"The problem is exactly what you just said, they don't have the votes. Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, two Republicans on the record saying they're going to vote against Betsy DeVos. As you heard Chuck Schumer say, they need one more. My guess is after a weekend of not getting one more it's very hard for me to see that there's anyone else out there. Deb Fisher from Nebraska said she's going to vote for DeVos, Pat Toomey from Pennsylvania said he's going to vote for DeVos. I think this may be an attempt by Democrats to elongate to satisfy their activist base, but when the vote happens I think she's going to go through by the narrowest of margins."
