Surprised to see the Senate still going (10:30 eastern)

Tuned in to Cspan2 just in time to see McConnell refuse to allow Ed Markey to speak on his amendment before it went to vote. McConnell seemed a bit more smirkey than usual. Anybody know what I missed?

Update: Now McC moved to table Carper's amendment, refusing to let Carper speak. Hmm.
