There are times when the Senate is more formal, but most of Senate business is not done of the Senate floor. Senators make speeches because they want them in the Senate record and possibly because they want to be seen on TV, but they do not expect the other Senators to be moved by their oratory. Senators do have to be present to vote and sometimes they have to hang around the Senate floor when an important vote is expected, so they talk to people and try to get something done while they wait for the vote to come up.
