I think it's dead, Jim.

34 no votes. check it out.

Particularly noteworthy, this includes 8 Republican no votes:

   Lincoln Chafee (R-RI)
   Susan Collins (R-ME)
   Chuck Hagel (R-NE)
   Richard Lugar (R-IN)
   John McCain (R-AZ)
   Olympia Snowe (R-ME)
   Ben Campbell (R-CO)
   Lamar Alexander (R-TN)

Meaning there's a good chance this piece of shit won't even get a majority.

So if you live in these states, please call these folks and thank them.

(actually, the Democratic senators are worth calling as well; just because they're voting the right way doesn't mean they couldn't also use a little encouragement).

Yeah, I saw this list yesterday

Notice how Cantwell's not on the list? Hopefully, she just hadn't been contacted yet.

And props to Holy Joe Lieberman for getting this right.

She's there; she was there last night. It's just that the list is not entirely in alphabetical order.

Oh good. I scanned it quickly and didn't see her.

I feel better now.

Cantwell's been slippery about her positions in the past, so it wouldn't have surprised me.
