Overview of Harkin teleconference

The teleconference that Sen. Tom Harkin held this morning visited topics such as whether a cloture vote was scheduled (no), how long debate will last (end of this week or beginning of next week), what issues could derail the bill (funding, non-germane amendments such as immigration and medical malpractice), whether a filibuster is expected on Dorgan-Grassley (no), the junk food in schools amendment being up (coming today or tomorrow), conference committee - when? (not before holiday recess, in January).
