Since the GOP is nothing with these RINOs, they might as well be nothing without these RINOs. The Bill started at approx. $800 billion and even with the RINO "cuts" it ends at approx. $800 billion.

...drawing the wrath of their fellow Republicans and of some constituents...

Some?? Where the hell are the interviews with pissed off Republicans in these people's states??? I want faces. I want names. I want citizens in every state to be on TV saying how disgusted they are with this idiotic bill.

You can
DAMN WELL BETCHA
that if this were a George W. Bush idea, the LameStream Media would be finding "Joe Six Packs" who find this whole bailout notion STUPID.

But now that Hussein and the 'rats are cramming this down our grandchildrens' throats, not a single report on what the American people believe about the issue!!!

If the GOP had any cashews they would publicly announce that these have been expelled from the party and prepare to fund and run a challenger to them the next time they are up for vote.

When the stakes are high with the Neo-Com’s moving on DC, there can be no margin for this gadfly/cross-dressing crap.

If you don’t votr like a conservative then you won’t hold a Republicn office.

Remember that to make this work, we don’t have to actually un-vote all three.

All we need is to fire JUST ONE, that will make those RINO’s in the future think that they could be next.

"I hope they will look at the fact that we were able to cut $110 billion of unnecessary spending from this bill. I think that's a good accomplishment. I also think that it's important that we do pass a stimulus bill to help turn the economy around."

I never expected any of those three to stand with the Republicans, considering how much time they've spent voting with Democrats over the last few years.

I tried to call Specter Friday and his mailbox was full. So I got on his Senate website and sent him an email:

Anytime someone is pressuring you to do something immediately, they are trying to put something over on you. That’s the tactics of time-share sales people. They are slick and want you to make a decision before you have a chance to make a detailed evaluation. That’s exactly what’s going on here! And you recognized that, per your comments yesterday. But you’re falling for it and also going against the party to vote for it!!!! Why!!!!! It makes no sense!! This is a bad bill!! Please reconsider your vote and side with the American taxpayers. This bill contains liberals’ wish lists to cover 50 years. But this won’t be the end of it. This will only give them encouragement and they will go on and on with more bills like this!! The American taxpayer is doomed if this bill passes.

Sent similar emails to Collins and Snowe, omitting the part about his remarks on the floor.

I need to write DiFi too to tell her how disappointed I am that she caved, after she had said that she didn’t think she’d vote for it. But she did!!

0 is a snake-oil salesman. I still think he’s hiding something and that’s why he was pushing early voting so people would vote before they learned the secret.

You bet GOP Senators are facing a backlash!

And so are the democrats:

No, ther won't be a backlash. There's a good reason those three are RINO's.

There won't be a backlash--at least one they could care about. They'll have lots of support from other democrats and certainly the MSM.

Just look at how the demographics and voting patterns in those states are trending.

“Well, I know that some of my Republican colleagues are unhappy with the position that I’ve taken...”

Some?

[ozzymandus]

Specter the traitor also kept Clinton from being thrown out of office.
