" Sen. Lincoln D. Chafee, under pressure as one of the last senators undecided on Judge Samuel A. Alito Jr.'s fitness for the Supreme Court, has committed himself to help fellow Republicans break a last-ditch Democratic filibuster of the nomination"

Another Gang of 14 member on board to help end the filibuster. Does anyone have a list of all gang members committed to stopping the filibuster?

Not that I've seen. None have come out in favor of it. The following, off the top of my head, are against cloture abuse in the context of the Alito nomination:

Graham
Chafee (with this article, but the comment comes from spokesman, not the Senator)
McCain
Byrd (who is FOR the nominee)
Ben Nelson (also FOR the nominee)

There was a rumor that Salazar (in the gang of 14) was going to announce a decision to filibuster. If he does, all hell will break loose.
