65? Let me guess, all R's but Chafee and 11 Democrats who are either in red states or running for re-election this year.

Someone let me know if I was right.

BBC Report:

BBC: US Senate backs terror trial bill ~ Passed by 65-34 vote --( could be signed this weekend )

[Robert A Cook PE]

Now, the only question is, "How many of the democrats (who voted FOR the law) are running for reelection, and how many (that voted against it) are NOT running for re-election?"

Added Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., "We are being asked to consider legislation that will determine how our troops and personnel, foreign troops and personnel, as well as innocent bystanders will be treated when captured during conflict."

like the military guys that had their d**ks cut off and stuck in their mouths then beheaded...you mean like THAT kind of activity when captured ?

Cantwell - Nay.

Mr. McGavick she just handed you the race if you know what to do with it.

Here are the dems who voted YEA.

Carper (D-DE), Johnson (D-SD), Landrieu (D-LA), Lautenberg (D-NJ), Lieberman (D-CT), Menendez (D-NJ), Nelson (D-FL), Nelson (D-NE), Pryor (D-AR), Rockefeller (D-WV) and Salazar (D-CO)

I'm sure or fairly certain Landrieu, Lautenberg, Rockefeller and Salazar are not running this year. I'm sure or fairly certain Lieberman (D-CT), Menendez (D-NJ), Nelson (D-FL), and Nelson (D-NE) are running this year. My doubts are Carper and Pryor.

[neverdem]
