I did not put this in breaking news the Admin moderators did. I never post anything in breaking news I let the moderators move it to breaking news as they see fit.

I checked out the thread....the yes is he will vote yes on Alito. He hasn't changed his mind.

[Chesterbelloc]

Thanks. I remeber seeing a poll in the last couple of weeks and that was the one.

No, DiFi isn't one of the Gang of 14. Here they are:

LOL Allen said to Kerry "Go Ahead, Make my Day". I'm serious! LOL

[Chesterbelloc]

He had said earlier this week he would vote yes for Alito. Now apparently he's not sure.

...according to an anonymous post on DU.

On one hand, I'm a bit concerned that the DUmmies are so motivated and burning up the phone lines. On the other, I'm fairly certain this is fait accompli

[mylife]

He says go ahead "make my day" we will use the constitutional option.
He also says he doesnt believe the Ried and co will go through with it, since the last time they had a major obstructionist (daschle) he became an ex obstructionist and we picked up 4 seats L0L

Didn't he say that before? I've worried that when it came right down to it, when it finally reached the "put-up or shut-up" moment, that Frist, et al., would wimp out. We'll see. It won't surprise me if they wimp out and once again turn a sure victory into a defeat.

Thanks mylife.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Conrad, Dorgan, and Landrieu from your list end up being crossover votes for Alito too.

I think there will be enough crossover voting to insure confirmation with 60 votes. That way all the moonbat "heat" will be focused on the turncoats, and deflected from the DEM party as a whole.

They'll draw straws sometime before the vote. Meanwhile, it's better for them to keep the position secret. It makes for better drama.

Do you know if a vote against Alito would hurt Menendez?

I don't think the vote, either way, will be a decisive factor in his race. He'll vote the way DEM leadership tells him to vote.

Heck it just ended :( so sorry fatima

[6SJ7]

This is a pure money grab. They distributed all those petitions and phone numbers, so that they can get a list of people to solicit for future campaign donations...

I think you nailed it. The Dems are shaking the money tree.

[rwfromkansas]

Wow...a Republican leading in NJ?

[fatima]

(((Hugs))) You tried.

[rwfromkansas]

Certainly. No way in hell he would go nuclear without an actual filibuster.
