The 52-35 vote followed the collapse of negotiations between Senate Democrats and Republicans seeking a compromise.

From David Welch at Business Week:
On CBS’ “Face the Nation” today, Senator Chris Dodd (D-Conn.) said that General Motors Chairman and CEO Rick Wagoner should “move on.” That could mean that Dodd and other members of Congress will ask for Wagoner’s resignation before voting on a loan package for GM and Chrysler next week.
