Senate getting to vote on the assault weapons ban as an amendment to
a bill which gives gun manufacturers liability. It is the Feinstein amendment.

It will be a close vote, perhaps a tie and Cheney will have to break the tie--and Bush will have to break his word that he would support the ban on assault weapons.

This could get interesting. Roll call has begun.

1. And Edwards and Kerry have left the campaign trail on a crucial day
to go back to Washington to vote.

2. Nope. Kerry gave the closing speech and Edwards is also due in to vote
for the assault weapons ban.

4. Yes, on the assault weapons ban, the Feinstein Amendment.
What is it with Feingold? He voted NO!
