It was Levin that asked

Seen one old liberal S.O.B. seen 'em all.

[mhking]

Have I missed anything awful?

Lots of anti-climatic yawning.

[Carolinamom]

Has McCainButtBoy Graham voted yet?

[StarFan]

Lately, politics does nothing but raise my blood pressure.

Mega dittos and last night I swore I was going to give myself a reprieve for awhile since it was creating ulcers and uncontrollable mood swings. So where was I bright and early this morning? As I am almost most mornings, getting heart burn listening to the BS from the other side.

[LisaFab]

Right. So if the nuclear threat is all it takes, then we win. Results count. If we get votes on all seven, that's the bottom line.

[processing please hold]

They all basically agreed to invoke cloture on Owens. They're voting "aye" to do so.

Thanks. I was beginning to think I woke up on that alternate universe we hear so much about.

I heard hildabeast vote yea. I wonder how many dimocraps had heart attacks when they heard that?

[Cboldt]

The dems are mostly voting aye because ...

They believe Frist will invoke the nuclear option if, and only if, cloture doesn't pass.

[Jim Verdolini]

I agree. No Money. That and face time on TV seem to be all that motivates these people.

[Maigrey]

Dorgan No

[cyncooper]

Kohl-aye

Obama-aye

Harkin-aye

McCain-aye

Dorgan-no

[Jrabbit]

Just the drunk swimmer. I can't think if anything more awful......

[steveegg]

It will be very interesting to see how much longer Reid survives as RAT Senate leader.

[mhking]

Dorgan - NO.

Murray - NO.

Boxhead - NO.

[StarFan]

Boxer just voted and we're not surprised.

[cyncooper]

Boxer-no

[maggief]

Boxer NO

Shocked, I tell ya.

[Maigrey]

Murray... No
Boxer... No
Santorum... Aye

[defconw]

McCain Aye
Hatch Aye
Harkin Aye
Murray no
Boxer No
Santorum Aye

[Cboldt]

If we get cloture we don't need the nuclear option until they refuse cloture next time.

If cloture passes, we can't even light the Constitutional Nuclear Byrd firecracker.

[Maigrey]

Landreau Aye
Sarbaines Aye
