This is from an email I received from PFAW, and how everyone voted in respect to Alito:
We are, of course, deeply disappointed that the Senate voted to confirm Samuel Alito to the Supreme Court moments ago.
But we are heartened by the fact that despite overwhelming odds from the beginning, PFAW activists never gave up. You sent over 600,000 faxes and emails to the Senate in the last five days alone! Thank you for all your hard work!
We fought hard up until the final vote, convincing 42 senators to vote against Alito's confirmation. We even helped inspire 25 progressive senators to stand on principle and attempt a filibuster even though the odds were against them.
Now that the fight is over, it's important to let the senators who fought Alito know you appreciated their standing up for our rights -- when the next fight comes, they'll be in a stronger position to lead if they're confident they'll have our support. Also let senators who voted to confirm Alito know that you'll remember their votes when they're up for reelection.
Here's how senators voted on the filibuster and on the final vote. Call your senators and let them hear your appreciation or disappointment.
