The way I look at this is if McCain (even though he is a RINO) gives us the Senate in November, we will (at least) have a Republican Senate Majority Leader and control the Senate Committees. We need this power in the Senate if we take the House as well. How bad do we want the dems to keep control of the Senate? It's not worth losing the Senate by voting a dem over a rep from Az. We MUST take control back from the House as well as the Senate to stop Obama in his tracks.

You are absolutely correct.

In order for the republicans to gain committee leadership, they must have the majority. Voting for a democrat will not do that.

It really bothers me so see very intelligent people not look past the one vote each senator has. Tax bills start in committees. Committees are controlled by the majority. We are seeing the effect of the dem majority right now, they control committees.
