Just read that Sen. Richard Blumenthal has just announced that he supports the nuclear agreement deal with Iran.
"I will vote to support the proposed agreement concerning Iran's nuclear program and against the resolution of disapproval before the Senate. My two paramount goals have been to prevent a nuclear-armed Iran and do so by peaceful means. I believe the proposed agreement, using diplomacy, not military force, is the best path now available to prevent a nuclear-armed Iran," he said.
That makes it a sweep for Connecticut's representatives. Yay!
I guess that means that Larry Kudlow will now be challenging him.
“Maybe I’m speaking out of school Peter but … if Senator Richard Blumenthal votes with Obama on Iran, I’m going to run against him. I’m going to run against him for the Senate,” Kudlow said, according to Roll Call. “The national Senate campaign committee has come to me and talked to me about it. They polled. I’m not a political guy, I’m an economist. I’m a broadcaster by profession, but I am so angry at this issue, among others."
Let's give Sen. Blumenthal some love and let him know we approve of his decision.
And let's put some pressure on the remaining Democratic holdouts!
9:29 AM PT: UPDATE:
Per our own Meteor Blades, we are all now watching what Maria Cantwell does due to the fact that not all who announced their support for the deal look like they would be willing to filibuster.
