94. You are depending on the good nature of 12 Republicans to not...
...change their vote if told to change it by the Senate majority leader Bill Frist. I have a strong suspicion that Frist would have threatened or bribed a couple of them to do just that. If you want the 2 guys who have any chance of removing Bush and his minions to be running back and forth to DC for votes that do nothing more than make a statement on an issue but won't change the outcome go right ahead. I would rather have them out campaigning and raising money to actually accomplish something positive like removing the Chimp in November.

But since you appear to be missing the importance of the fact that the Republicans control the White House and both houses of Congress and therefore control everything that happens in DC what I say here will not probably sink in either. But I tried. See ya.
