The Senate just voted against invoking cloture on the Patriot Act. That means another failure for Majority Leader Frist and his President who needed 60 votes to end the debate and have a vote. They got 52. 47 Senators voted against cloture.
After the vote, Leahy offered a compromise to extend the Patriot Act for three months so it won't expire. But, Frist is opposed.
