You only need to call the Dems Mitch McConnell and John McCain have the Senate Repubs 100% against it. Around 7 Senate Dems are currently against it. |

Evan Bayh is a fence sitter on this one. He is up for re-election in 2010 so he is in leaning against. Most repubs are flat out against it. Bayh will be one like Olympia Snow that after some BS projects are taken out will claim Washingon worked in a Bi partianship manner and vote for it. If not Filibustered it would pass the Senate as is say 52-47. I don't think Al Frank and beans has been seated yet. Then it would be a Dem bill with not one Rep vote in the House or Senate and the Dems are on the hook in the 2010 elections for this bill alone growing the nattional Debt by 10%. |

this is true BG, but I think the more calls the republicans get, the more inclined they will be to fillibuster. That being said, I am sure that some of our resident libs on here are also against this crazy bill, so hopefully they are calling their rep also. |

I find it troubling he is the only Republican Senator, strictly a right to lifer, who has performed abortions on women. His integrity dropped in my book for that, regardless of the circumstance. Lucky i don't vote on social values. |
