Who were the “nay” voters?

[SandRat]

Don’t know.

[Radio Free Tuscaloosa]

Tom Harkin voted nay on both Odierno and Petraeus. The Grand Imperial Wizard “Sheets” Byrd voted against Petraeus as well. McCain, Obama, and Kennedy (understandably) did not vote, since they weren’t there.

Kennedy, Obama and McCain did not vote on either resolution. McCain missed an opportunity to vote YEA and to point to Obama as not voting.

Byrd and Harkin voted NAY on Patreus becoming CENTCOM commander.

Only Harking voted NAY on Odierno being promoted into Patraeus' old job.

I guess Sheets Byrd doesn't like the sound of Patraeus' name. Old Klan habits die hard. Harkin is just an @$$ who wouldn't vote to confirm George Washington to lead the Continental Army.
