The vote was 72 Yea, 25 Nay, and 3 not voting.

Hilary voted Nay.

Obama took a walk and did not vote.

Edwards did not vote.

Duane R.. Patterson wrote and posted on the Townhall.Com Hugh Hewitt site-----

"Hillary Rodham Clinton, the next president of the United States, unless Republicans decide to run like Republicans again in 2008 and keep the White House in responsible hands, did cast a vote today, and voted against Petraeus, and for MoveOn.org, a watershed moment in her campaign. If she ever wanted her public image to be that of a moderate, it's gone now with this vote. Hillary is one of three or four people that will be the next president of the United States, and she just tipped her hand that she shows more respect to the radical fringe of her base than she does to the country's top general prosecuting a war that she originally supported."

History of the amendment and the wording with the roll call vote-----72 Yea and 25 Nay.
