Is Chafee's "defection" from Alito enough cover for Snowe and Collins? |
|
I'm just asking
The 3 supposed Repug fence sitters from New England might need one another for the incoming flack headed their way from the right

2. They are more likely to do right, if they have some company |
|
And, a few Republicans would give us the same thing that are defectors (TRAITORS) gave the Republicans....
See, it isn't just the DEMS that are concerned about this...there are Republicans who are concerned as well...
Ridiculous, but it is a talking point the media parrots will squawk out.

Chaffee will vote for cloture. He's a rubber-stamp Republican all the way. They have enough votes to spare Chaffee a YES vote in the roll-call, and that's what this is all about. No way Chaffee gets involved in the filibuster. He's a boot-licking punk, forst and foremost.
