This bill = :Door:

And Santorum will most likely follow in '06.

I can't believe there are 4 votes for this bill on our poll. I wonder if the good senator is lurking about and voting in the poll too.

Probably Santorum, Joe Bastardi, and those two guys who both have the last name of Myers, have snuck onto here and voted.

Nay - There's enough pressure from weather folks, flight folks,
and others to kill this one this time.

Insanitorum has got to go.

He will get the boot on my vote and my wifes vote as well as my mother-in-law's vote in 2006. So that is 3 votes for whoever is running against him.

From what I've heard, only Santorum seems interested in the bill. The other senators don't seem to like it.

Senators Nelson and Lott are definitely against it. Have any of the other senators said anything about it?

The poll question is do you think it will pass. I would not consider any yea vote to mean one supports the bill, rather they have little faith in politicians to care about and do the right thing.

I also do not think it will pass at least I hope not.

I am really pretty busy over the next few months (yea, hurricanes start and I get really busy with work, it sucks). But if this does go to the floor, hopefully someone will post and sticky it so we can all call our senitors to vote against it. Hopefully it will quietly die in committee.
