Good morning, all.
Join us today for the final victory lap, the vote to "confirm Samuel Alito, of New Jersey, to be an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court."
It's all over except the final vote tally.
Lots of surprises yesterday at the HUGE vote to impose cloture, so perhaps there are still some surprise votes to come?

Thanks for the transcription!
The final tally? *bites nails*
I want to see less than 60 just because I know that is our best hope for gains in Nov.

Thank you to the Senators from Maine...RINOS they may be but they vote right more often than my Senators from Michigan ever do.

The libs all waited until the vote in favor was at least 51 to cast their "no" votes.
