Biden's vote was not "in the Senate," but was in the Judiciary Committee.

I don't know of an exception for a Senate floor vote being cast "in person."

You MUST be present on the Senate floor, and walk to the clerk in the well, to record your vote..

Well, good grief, Harry, why don't you just condense this speech to "I hate Bush, so there!"

Body armor lie, stretched thin lie, Katrina lie, etc. etc.

Neither do I. There is no mention of it here.

I seem to recall a proxy of some kind being given to a Pub senator by, IIRC, Ted Stevens, who was ill. Don't remember what the vote was on, but it was on the Senate floor and not in committee.
