My understanding is that if somehow McConnell did not have the votes and needed Daines, they could have held the vote open until Sunday until Daines could come back to Washington.
Rubio voted Yea. I posted the roll call link.
I think once the Daines wedding came up I think McConnell and Murkowski came up with this plan, to give Murkowski cover. I think had the wedding not come up, Murkowski probably would have been ‘aye’.
Correct. They had it covered. Pence there. One dem voting yes and he called Trump. Pairing votes. If issue Mitch would keep vote open for Daines.
That’s a sacrafice. I’d say you dad was needed there, Montana senator not needed today.
That kind of talk is what gets Ann Coulter in trouble. Sometimes she sounds like a RAT.
No, on this she is right (not the wedding being spoiled), he had not business putting his daughter’s wedding ahead of his constitutional requirements. He is fortunate that Trump is giving him cover.
Many thanks for your father’s service in Viet Nam.
Old John Warner of VA cast a “no” on Judge Bork in 1987. Thereafter he became a full-fledged liberal.
Her comment about groom screwing bridemaid?Coulter’s statement was inappropriate. She has a potty mouth. I don’t like potty mouths.

Gee. This a different group of Freepers than the ones wailing on Daines for skipping town.
I didn’t get the math on that yesterday, but now I do. Agreed.
What’s Rubio’s excuse for what?
This time if Manchin actually pulls off a win in West Virginia he will change over to the Republican party within 90 days of the election.
Nobody wants to be on the losing side Especially when they already agree with the winning side 9 times out of 10.
You are entirely correct.
You are entirely correct.
That’s kewel.
Giving him political cover
I’d do it...
Trump the blob every time he eats a rat he gets stronger we need to start a petition for rushmore
It also explains why Bill Maher (yes, THAT Bill Maher) is her ex-boyfriend.
