Thanks for the update. A testy e-mail has been sent to Sen. Toomey by one unhappy PA voter.

Don’t forget the 8 R’s who abstained, which was an effective ‘yes’. (Had they and one more traitor voted ‘no’, he would not have been approved.)

I bear no greater disdain than for those who send their kids to the government to be “educated”.

These parents are the root and seed of what ails this country.

The root and seed.

Murkowsky voted ‘no’? What do you know about that?

Bravo Ms. Murkowsky. We give credit where credit is due.

But they collected their paycheck. Why go to work when you get paid for not going to work. That’s even worse than welfare. That’s just plain stealing.

“Once again, Rubio and Cruz are looking out for their own interests than those of the Americans who elected them...”

Jeff Sessions? was he out campaigning for the Donald? that’s okay.

I am ashamed to have Lamar Alexander as one of our senators! (TN)

49 YES votes?

Does he get the appointment?

The following need to be crucified:
“Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., and six other Republicans voted yes: Alexander, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Thad Cochran of Mississippi, Susan Collins of Maine, John Cornyn of Texas, and Orrin Hatch of Utah.”

Sessions isn’t running for POTUS, thus not need to prove he can do his job. He also doesn’t have a piss-poor voting record as Cruz and Rubio do.

After promising that the 2010 election would be his last run for Senate, McCain is running again anyway. How many of the other absentees are up for reelection his year? They sure aren't going to make any 'controversial' votes before November.

No objections to this? This man has almost a full year before Obama leaves office to wreak all kinds of havoc and you have no objections to this?

Shame on Ted Cruz for missing this key vote. Shame on his supporters for making excuses for him, too. King is a disaster and no republican, certainly no conservative, should have voted for or missed this vote.

To me, Trump now stands alone as the only candidate against common crap.

Cornyn is dead to me. Votes against anything conservative. Against Cruz.

Unfortunately, we're stuck with him for another 4 1/2 years. He'll break out his cowboy boots and "conservative principles" in time for the primary in 2020.

My bad ... I misread the chart

I was wavering on Toomey up for re-election ... now it's settled ... looking for another candidate
