What on earth has happened to the Republican Party?

Saturday the Senate voted 89-10 for a compromise bill that would extend the payroll tax cut for two months, extend unemployment benefits through February and keep payments to physicians who accept Medicare patients level for the same period. The bill was cobbled together by Sen. Mitch McConnell, minority leader, and Majority Leader Harry Reid. 

Sen. McConnell and 38 other Republican senators voted for the bill.
