Senator Blanch Lincoln voted against the HCR Reconciliation bill, I believe she was the only "Democrat" to do so. Senators Liberman and Sanders voted with the Democratic Party.

It is a good thing she has a Primary Challenger.

2. What isher story? She seems to be against everything Dem,
but I don't remember her ever giving a reason?

I've seen & heard her opposer on several TV shows & although I'm not in Ark. I was a lot more impressed with him than I've been with Blanch!

4. Both Ark Senators voted with the 'Ridge-Runners'
Not even satellite teevee will bring some places into the 20th century. How do we expect Senators from such places to lift the US into the future?

6. She also voted *with* the Repugs on a number of their amendment farces.
Cannot stand her. But worse, from what I've seen of her primary challenger, I don't have much more faith in him, either.

9. Blanche likes money too much .... We are working to get rid of her here in Arkansas
From a MoveOn.org fundraising email:

Blanche Lincoln is one of the worst corporate Democrats in Washington. That's why 92 percent of Arkansas MoveOn members voted to support Bill Halter over Blanche Lincoln in a primary election. Instead of fighting for the health care reform Arkansas families desperately need, she took nearly a million ($866,000) from Big Insurance and HMO interests and then played a leading role in opposing the public health insurance option. She took $1.3 million from Wall Street banks and helped kill legislation that would've allowed struggling homeowners to stay in their homes. And she sponsored a bill to roll back the Clean Air Act to protect corporate profits. With Bill Halter, our Arkansas members see a candidate who will stand up to special interests. Arkansans deserve someone who'll fight for them, not Wall Street.
