No endorsements for the Administration's plan from any Democrats? Sounds like the Administration is Iran's only best friend in this situation. I think Kerry wants a deal, any deal, badly and would concede anything to be able to say he got something.

It's obvious the Administration is no fan of Israel and the Senate Republicans and most Democrats are all in Israel's pocket.
