C-Span 2

Posted on 05/25/2005 4:04:22 AM PDT by ken5050

Good morning all. Senate convenes at 9:30 am this morning, to vote on the nomination of Priscilla Owen. I've started the thread early, as I have to leave for a few hours, but also to give us a place to start commenting early on the events of yesterday....

Where's the scoreboard they usually have up on votes? Anyone have a clue?

Lieberman, member of the 14 gang, has broken his word and voted NO?

His word was to invoke cloture, not vote to confirm.

Anyone have an overall count right now?

See #737 (though since a couple RATs are included in that, and it's about 3/4ths through, it's likely to change).

Swinestein - no

Somebody said the Senate doesn't allow it anymore.

Some court ruled against it...

We are all venting our frustrations and our hopes. No one is right or wrong here. The future is unpredictable. I appreciate views across the board, agree with some, disagree with some. But this judicial issue is a huge one for our families, our country and invokes a lot of emotion as it should. It can't be helped.

Mukulski (sp?) just changed her vote to NO

No, the earlier reports should have said Murkowski.

I bet you're right. I'd be offended if I was Murkowski. Would YOU want to be confused for that other Tub-O-Lard?
