WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Sen.

Kerry, in Davos, Switzerland, to attend the World Economic Forum, was marshaling support in phone calls during the day, Henry said.

"Who's the fourth? I've got Nelson, Johnson, Byrd."
I think that Landrieu will vote for Alito, but I haven't had much time to read.
She is up this year, and she barely stole her seat last time around with all the unusual voting activity in New Orleans during that special election.
She should get the boot this year.

Kerry's new line will be "Do you know who I was?" "Sen. John Kerry calls for a filibuster of Samuel Alito's Supreme Court nomination"
That about wraps it up. Time for the Alito family to shop for champagne.

There are already 60 votes against a filibuster. This is nothing more than a stunt.
