Hi all. I just wanted to make an open thread to continue the discussion on Senator Feingold's brave resolution, and most importantly to try to get some idea of who is on board.
Please post which senators you called in the heading, and if they plan on co-sponsoring in the body (as well as any comments). I will update regularly with the status.
Please recommend if you think this would be usefull.
UPDATE: here's the list of as of 3:12 pm Central- it is in the order of posts, so forgive the mayhem.
Obama.....unsure
Durbin....maybe
Wyden.....unsure
kerry.....yes
Kennedy....maybe
Salazar....unsure
specter....unsure
santorum...Hah! (no comment)
Reid......unsure
Smith.....unsure
Bayh......no comment
Lugar.....unsure
Lincoln...unsure
Pryor.....unsure
Clinton...unsure
Schumer....unsure
Dayton.....unsure
Coleman....maybe
the unsures are those who are evenly on the fence.
the no comments are almost certainly nos who's staffers didn't say as much
the maybes are those who seemed leaning towards yes.
1 senator. that's all we have.
UPDATE 2: ELECTRIC BOOGALOO: I meant to post this with the diary- the link for the stream on the vote is
here
UPDATE 3: as rktect points out- we have 2- feingold and kerry.
UPDATE 4: This'll be my last update- Every Democratic senator has been contacted and the only 2 ays are still from Kerry and (of course) Feingold. This should be a diary in and of itself- spineless dems. Oh wait!
It just was (and repeatedly has been). Grrrrrrrrr....
