I'm going to throw out an unpopular opinion:
Although I don't agree with the deal, I think we cannot just "cancel" it without looking completely incompetent to our enemies and allies. Regardless of whether it was a good decision, we now need to modify it and uphold it. Bipartisan support of making the best of what was created and an open dialogue we now have with Iran is the only way forward. Fighting it will only cause more issues in our already very divided political arena.

Right now they're hoping they don't lose 7 more Democrats so they can pass a cloture vote.
Not out of the realm of possibilities...

SPC Andrew Griffin This is a bad situation. This deal should have been set up behind closed doors with the foreign relations committee, speaker of the house, Vice President, and President. A tentative agreement or at the very least an outline of what would be acceptable to all. That way when the negotiations began in earnest, Mr. Kerry would have had a ground work for what he could do without stirring up a political shit storm. The problem is that Washington has become so dysfunctional that if they had met to set terms, this deal would never have gotten done.
As to whether or not it is a good deal for all parties, only time will tell.
