Who jumped the aisle for the GOP? Let me guess the first four: Spector, Chafee, Snowe, McCain.

That's 4... who are the other 5?

Why would any Republican vote FOR this legislation?

You know that it will be challenged immediately. The courts will never uphold this.

Does the President have any other options to stop this besides a veto? If he vetoes this the media will have a field day.

The media will have a field day anyway. Counting on the good graces of the media is always a loser.

Add McCain, of course, if he bothered to show up for the vote.
