CNN's Ed Henry reports, and it appears to be correct, that the Gang of 14 will announce, AS A GROUP, that there are not extraordinary circumstances justifying filibuster of Sam Alito. Remember who is in the Gang of 14:
Republicans
* John S. McCain III, Arizona
* Lindsey O. Graham, South Carolina
* John Warner, Virginia
* Olympia Snowe, Maine
* Susan M. Collins, Maine
* R. Michael DeWine, Ohio
* Lincoln Chafee, Rhode Island
Democrats
* Joseph I. Lieberman, Connecticut
* Robert C. Byrd, West Virginia
* E. Benjamin Nelson, Nebraska
* Mary Landrieu, Louisiana
* Daniel Inouye, Hawaii
* Mark Pryor, Arkansas
* Ken Salazar, Colorado
55 Repubicans now firmly supporting cloture including Chafee and Snowe
Agreed. Do I understand Ensign's car was hit by two different vehicles?
To swerve across lanes and hit him head on sounds random to me... traffic in that particular area is always heavy, especially early in the day....
I was not going to don my tinfoil hat on the timing of this jeep swerving into his lane causing the headon but due to the nature of the demos, I'm like you - can't help wondering.
DiFi's house---the fancy landscaping notwithstanding, I've seen better facades on the backs of barns. The third-floor "slave quarters" style, that's a nice touch. I remember touring a house with that, in NJ, built in the 1700's. Still had the shackle anchors in the walls. Gotta keep them servants on the plantation, eh Di?
You got that right
earlier post said that Ensign is OK.
Do you have a picture of Sheehans tent?
WELL DONE, KEN!
If Ensign isn't there to invoke cloture? what happens
Sounds like the car behind him couldn't stop in time when he was head-on'ed.
Proud holders of diplomas from public schools.
...We see where this is going...and it's LMAO funny! Sheehan's tent vs. Di's castle...Di may be toast come November..!

It sounded like another "Christmas in Cambodia" story to me.
we are going to be fine whether Ensign makes it in time for the cloture vote or not.
We have 64 or so votes already to invoke cloture.
please expound

LOL! On the snoq award?
