After I invoke clonePosition on an element, then setStyle is not working.
 Is this expected behavior?

Karl..

The clone position method and setting style properties on an element have
nothing to do with each -other.
Could you:

use firebug to place break points in your code to see the values of your
variables before / on / after using these methods!
if these are all right, provide a minimal-case code snippet that represents
the problem
not expect other people to do all the job for you..

I was merely looking for verification on the behavior of the two methods in code, and wondering if anyone else had experienced similar.
Man I hate forum bashing.

At any rate: I'll try and get a sample together.

Ok.Yes, I have made mistakes in my code that caused Prototype methods not
to work. Prototype methods do not work on unextended elements - if you lose
the reference to your element in a variable, for whatever reason-, if you
try to call element methods on non-elements, or you are calling an element
method with a typo in the argument, for instance. Have you checked all
these by placing break points in firebug at some critical points in your
code? Do you get any error messages in the console? Have you tried setting
some style properties on your element directly through the native style
declaration object? I would do this latter one first!
There are always people here to help beginners (in Prototype!)  out if they
see an effort.

I appreciate the follow up petrob.  I am not new to Prototype, I've been
using if for 3-4 years now.
Yes, I have stepped through the code, have invoked setStyle from the
console, etc.. to no evail.  
This particular issue has slipped away a bit, when it comes around again
and is high priority I will put together that sample code and investigate
further.

Karl..
