I'm not sure if you could call 57-40 in favor a "blow up." Failure? Yes. Blow up? No.

It looks like they didn't just fail to gain any republicans, but they lost a few dems as well. So no gays in the military or illegal aliens getting college loans, but the government gets to control our food supply even more.
