and, unfortunately, it's not looking good. Voinovich is going to vote for him in committe, as is Hagel. Alexander is speaking now and I can't figure out if he's a yea or nay.

He is without a doubt Evil Incarnate. I'd really like to see the FBI sitting in on his little weekly soires and investigate him for treasonous activities and inciting government overthrow. Well...I can dream anyway.

17. Dems are doing everything they can on this one |
|
They're not breaking ranks -- all will vote him down -- and they've brought up some serious stuff that should give the Rethugs pause. It's just that THEY're all in lockstep and aren't allowing reason to enter into their decision-making. They're TOTALLY partisan ... not thinking about the good of the country in the least. Disgusting.

20. I think Senator Martinez is the last speaker |
|
Lugar and Biden may each sum up (or not) and the vote will be very soon.
Looks like they're going to vote it out of the committee to the floor for a vote by the full senate.
