1. If so, I hope he is able to bring three more Senators into the fold.
Not sure how that's gonna happen, but perhaps Lieberman knows something I don't.

:shrug:

5. Hopefully it's a straight repeal
and there's not alot they can do to muck this up.

3. I've not thought well of him many times, but this certainly makes me feel
far better about Liebermann. I think this would be quite admirable if he and Collins do this.

4. My goodness.
I'll take WTF for $1000, Alex.

The public option, not extending high-income tax cuts, and repealing DADT.

What are three things with overwhelming public support that might die in the Senate this year?

Good luck to Lieberman and Collins. But somehow it seems there's always another excuse for why we can't get it done now.

6. Well, if they do,
Lisa Murkowski will have a chance to redeem herself for all the Dems and indies in Alaska who voted for her -- if she will. I am FURIOUS with her right now.
