Wis. House members all back torture ban

UPDATE: McCain, Bush agree on torture ban.

In a rare occurrence, all eight members of Wisconsin's delegation voted Wednesday to support a ban on torture, which passed 308-122. With four Republicans and four Dems, the Badger delegation's votes usually cancel each other out.

The vote was a big setback for the Bush administration, and when Republican reliables like F. Jim Sensenbrenner and Mark Green jump ship, you know you're in trouble.

The Washington Post has the details.
