Actually Coburn voted against the bill because the Dem leaders wouldn't allow his amendment to be voted on that would prevent lawmakers from adding earmarks that benefit their family members. Its easy to assume the worst about someone you disagree with politically but its always nice to not distort their positions. If you had bothered to look at Coburn's website you would have realized why he voted against the bill.
I looked at Hatch's also but he had no press release on the bill yet.
