You got the names right, but you are missing the significance... It was not a ‘committee’ vote.

The best chance to kill the horrible FOOD NAZI bill was at the full-senate cloture vote.

THAT was when it needed 60 votes to pass.

So it essentially passed TODAY, and these traitors are responsible!

Yea TN Alexander, Lamar [R]
Yea WY Barrasso, John [R]
Yea MA Brown, Scott [R]
Yea NC Burr, Richard [R]
Yea ME Collins, Susan [R]
Yea TN Corker, Bob [R]
Yea WY Enzi, Michael [R]
Yea IA Grassley, Charles [R]
Yea NH Gregg, Judd [R]
Yea NE Johanns, Mike [R]
Yea FL LeMieux, George [R]
Yea IN Lugar, Richard [R]
Yea ME Snowe, Olympia [R]
Yea SD Thune, John [R]
Yea LA Vitter, David [R]
Yea OH Voinovich, George [R]

Tomorrow, it only needs a simple 50-vote plus Joe Biden rubber stamp, which is almost certain to happen.
