The Washington Post reports at least five Republicans are committed to supporting the Levin-Warner resolution, but this does not square with what has been reported to me, and I won't be trusting the MSM to report this debate fairly. I do not believe that either Norm Coleman or Gordon Smith have declared that they will be voting for the defeatist resolution --rightfully called a "vote of no confidence" by John McCain yesterday-- and the GOP caucus may hold together and kill the resolution in its crib.
The seven Republicans up for re-election in 2008 and listed by the Post as supporting or undecided on Levin-Warner, and thus to who the appeal should be made this week are:
Senator Lamar Alexander (TN): (202) 224-4944
Senator Norm Coleman (MN): (202) 224-5641
Senator Susan Collins (ME): (202) 224-2523
Senator Lisa Murkowski (AK): (202) 224-6665
Senator Gordon Smith (OR): (202) 224-3753
Senator John Sununu (NH): (202) 224-2841
Senator John Warner (VA): (202) 224-2023
They have to all be looking over their shoulders at this point.
WEAK SISTERS ALL!!! I can believe these people are for the defeat of America because they are WEAK SISTERS!! No leadership in any of them!! They disgust me.
Traitor scumbags earning a place in hell.
Hold on!
This a a Washington Post rumor paper, and needs to be verified by at least 2 other sources.
Don't shoot before we know they're deserting us.
I would suggest that all but the southern state senators are lost causes. Concentrate your efforts on Lamar Alexander and John Warner. Definitely don't waste your time on Susan Collins.
Thanks for the names/numbers.
Don't these Congress people have important business to tend to on the behalf of the American people -- instead of pretending to be the governments of second-rate countries like Britain and France?
If this was France, John Kerry would be president.
Not to mention HAGEL!
