Roll Call on Owen is Underway

[DCal]

[TahitiNut]

1. Senator Byrd: "Aye"

:puke:

[GreenPartyVoter]

2. *sigh*

[usregimechange]

3. Landeau Yes, Chafee no! Do you friggin believe it?

[flpoljunkie]

11. Landrieu comes from very red state of Louisiana. Trent Lott has received

many vile and abusive calls himself when it was learned he was supporting some sort of compromise on the nuclear option. Unfortunately, I expect Mary would have faced the same. Owens was a done deal, once cloture was invoked.

[flpoljunkie]

4. Senator Mary Landrieu, "Aye."

[Avalux]

6. Can't stand her -

I think it's time for Mary to take a hike.

[usregimechange]

5. I am thinking we couldn't afford to lose Byrd and Landeau.

[usregimechange]

7. Lieberman no

[pgh_dem]

8. ok i'm surprised by that

Collins went Aye...good lil poodle

[LittleClarkie]

26. I wanna see if Leiberman votes for Bolton tomorrow

Please make Allen look like a shmuck. Oh please. Not that he needs help in that regard.

[usregimechange]

9. It will be fairly close, Cheney on his way to the hill?

[TahitiNut]

12. Nonsense. It'll be about 59- 41

[usregimechange]

15. I had hope after Chafee, but you apear to be right

[pgh_dem]

13. Not close

[pgh_dem]

14. Snowe aye, another nail in the coffin

[pgh_dem]

[usregimechange]

16. deleted

[usregimechange]

17. We lost it didn't we?

[TahitiNut]

[usregimechange]

22. We need the Senate back in 06, work now

[QC]

18. Acc. to CNN, she's in--51 votes. n/t

[pgh_dem]

20. don't know how it's only 51

were there a lot of other repub's to cross over?
I only heard Chafee go no, and the other possible no votes (McCain, Snowe, Collins) all went aye...not only that, Byrd and Landrieu voted aye, too...

[CWebster]

21. Oh yay everybody!

What did you expect? A victory?

[bicentennial_baby]

23. 56-43 final tally

[kentuck]

25. Hardly the landslide they anticipated...

:) Mostly party line... I don't expect the Bolton nomination to go as smoothly for them....could get very interesting.

[whistle]

24. Owen gets voted in 56 yes, 43 no, 1 abstain, Frist just placed...

...Bolton's name up for the senate to vote on.
