UPDATE:

Flake Video

It passed with yays and McConnell has it now.

If you want to skip around, or you can't watch and just want a summary.

4:11:55 is Grassley calling on Flake for point of personal privilege (not motion for amendment)

4:13:46 Grassley calls the vote to move the nomination out of committee and to the floor.

4:14:36 Feinstein has to have an assistant try to explain what is happening because she is completely lost and has no ability to do her job.

4:15:05 Vote passes 11-10

4:16:14 Feinstein states that she has no idea what's going on and hasn't been paying attention.

4:17:06 Sen Leahy also has no idea what's going on and clearly doesn't understand the powers of the committee

4:17:40 Flake shows that he might have meant to frick the democrats.

4:18:00 is Grassley explaining that there is no amendment.

4:18:16 is Sen Klobuchar describing exactly how much of an arse bite Flake is and how partisan the democrats are.

4:19:13 is Sen Cornyn thanking Flake for getting on his knees in the backroom

4:20:18 Diane Feinstein's life falls apart and Flake confirms there was a backroom deal to delay the vote.

4:21:00 Flake waffles and tries to save some face

4:21:48 is when Grassley adjurns the session and Feinstein has an alzheimers moment.

I believe I read on Chad's page that Justice Thomas didn't get the committee votes and he obviously made it.

Even political junkies can't understand all of the procedures it seems. Read Chad's twitter feed to understand it all.
