Can someone tell me if Senator Kennedy (D-Margaritaville) has spoken today? If so, was he coherent? Yes. No more than usual. :-)

Yes, they're looking at the tape now --- seeing if they can feel comfortable about airing it.

"I've seen some calls from DU and DC for the Dems to boycott the vote tomorrow--are they allowed to do that? Can the Senators just not show up for the vote, once cloture passes in an hour or so?"
Oh, please do. I would think they would only need a quorum and then the 51 votes. Not sure of the rules.
Good thing is there would be no way that the media could hide that.

If by some chance Alito fails cloture, then we have to try again in March. Ted won't want a filibuster interfering with his plans for Spring Break in Florida.

They'll probably be holed up in a ski chalet in Davos.

Ok, will try to summarize for you. 1. The Swimmer says Alito will kill kids with asthma.
2. Kerry claiming that there wasn't enough time for debate.
3. Chaffee voting no.
4. Thre are enough votes to confirm as well as enough votes for cloture.
5. Vitiate means to cancel.
That sums it up. Cloture vote at 4:30 est today. Confirmation vote 11:00 am est tomorrow.
Thanks so much. Pass it on.

Heard just a snippet of Rush today: he said the dems are beyond the pale now. They thought HIllary would be their leader and savior but she is part of the problem. A sleight of hand and wink here and that used to keep the libs happy - now with Soros and Moore and all those other loons out there controlling the purse strings, they WANT their agenda spoken freely and its a left wing-nut one that CANNOT win!
