Three republicans shot themselves in the foot (Collins, Graham, and Alexander).
Those three already have multiple foot wounds.
Linda Graham has put a nail in his coffin for re-election in 2014. His/her Facebook page is getting hammered with pi$$ed off voters.
Collins is a well known traitor from way back, not unlike her twin RINO sister Snowe from Maine - not unexpected.
South Carolina democrats will keep her in office.
Either the GOP is too stupid to close its primaries, or it simply doesn’t want to, and I’m going with the latter.
Full Title
A bill to ensure that all individuals who should be prohibited from buying a firearm are listed in the national instant criminal background check system and require a background check for every firearm sale, and for other purposes.
And what makes ONE of these “people” think they have the right to “vote” on the Second Amendment?
The Toomey-Manchin Kill The Bill of Rights Bill.----------------------------------------------------------
Karl Levin is retiring but Tea Partier Dr Rob Steele sounds very likely to run.

We really need somebody good to run against Franken.
Did you forget Mclame and Flake?
They are not up for re-election in 2014.
oh yea, duh. They still need to hear from people. Their Face Book page is hot, hot, hot with angry people.
A senator should propose a Constitutional amendment that strikes the U.S. Senate from the Constitution. It isn’t that different from what they have done today.
Since passage of the 17th amendment, there is no real reason for the senate to exist.
