Filibuster fight: Senators end closed-door meeting

WASHINGTON (AP) ? Republicans and Democrats have wrapped up more than three hours of extraordinary closed-door talks over the fate of several of President Barack Obama's stalled nominations without a resolution.

Instead, senators emerging from the meeting say the Republican and Democratic leadership will continue the discussions into the evening.

The Senate is scheduled to begin taking a series of votes in the morning on seven appointees whom Republicans have so far blocked. Majority Leader Harry Reid is giving no indication he planned to change that.

The looming showdown threatens to unravel what little bipartisanship remains in the Senate.
