The Cures Act was one of the rare pieces of legislation that didn’t have to pass but did. Biden’s lobbying may have pushed it over the edge. But the fact that he was onboard also meant Republicans could load it up with special interest provisions and then count on Democrats. — PolitiTweet.org

Biden pointed to the fiscal cliff as evidence he could deal with McConnell. Reality is McConnell took him to the cleaners. But Biden also mentioned the Cures Act. That bill was also mixed bag—huge nods to special interests, but money for medical research. https://t.co/effgHm67P0 — PolitiTweet.org

One interesting dynamic about this bill: Michael Bennet, Cory Booker, and Kirsten Gillibrand voted for it. Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders voted no. (Warren actually said on the Senate floor that the bill was the result of “corruption.”) The bill passed 94-5 in the Senate. — PolitiTweet.org
