Harry Reid just now: "We're here for the duration"
The Republicans want to get some sleepy-bye but Harry is saying - no dice.

Just now on C-Span 2.

1. Sherrod Brown is the presiding president and was caught on camera smiling at Reid's remarks!
It was short but priceless. Reminded me of the judge in the movie, Mr. Smith Goes To Washington. :D

3. McConnell was acting like such a snake in the grass
Proposing that they end it for the night so they can conclude everything at some time in the "near future". He's such a slime drip.

5. Yeah, sorry, but he keeps acting like he's running the show
"Uh, we can get some rest, then have some good discussions and move this along...." Like hell! What 'good discussions' does he think he can contribute to? What the hell have they been doing for 14 months? Any ops for good discussions there?

4. Good!
If they want to play these games, make 'em sweat. Don't let them go home next weekend. Everybody stays until the job is done.

6. Grassley looks like he's getting testy upon reading his next amendment
A good sign!
