Blanche Lincoln (D-Ark.) with some funds for her state.But it is not over because Lincoln said:

“I have concluded that it is more important to begin this debate rather than just simply drop the issue and walk away.I’m not afraid of that debate. I’ve already alerted the Leader and I’m promising my colleagues that I’m prepared to vote against moving to the next stage of consideration as long as a government run public option is included.

Reid said after the vote:
Tonight’s vote is not the end of the debate. It’s only the beginning,”

Tonight’s vote sets the stage for the epic December showdown over health care legislation.
