Guess this turnaround doesn't surprise me. The party will do whatever it can, even resort to terroristic threats, to keep their members in line.

How much longer till the 2010 elections?

The aborted babies from states that don’t opt-out should be dumped on his grave.

The people of Nebraska should be embarrassed.

“Breaking News” only in that it’s the latest development.

But it’s hardly a surprise.

Same here, Russ. Depressing day. It's gonna be a depressing LIFE for a lot of Americans once this monstrosity passes and becomes law.

This is being shoved down the throats of all Americans against their will. This is TYRANNY.

There’s not one ounce of morals in that entire party.

If someone runs or votes for a democrat, they’ve got serious moral issues.

I will be highly entertained to see how Benji spins this.

1. Says he did it for the betterment of all citizens
2. Comes bringing bribes and gifts to the citizens
3. Announces his retirement and just didn’t give a damn
4. Gives glib replies then goes back to his hobbit hole and rides things out

Cspan, Reid being asked by reporter what Nelson got for his vote, Reid will not answer:) Reid says a number of different senators got a number of different things.
