Looks like she bought herself another 6 years.

Corrupt as her father.

Go figure.

Well, take heart... the balance is going to change for the better with the new Congress coming in.

How much it changes depends on how firm the new conservatives stand, and how the entrenched RINOs fight to keep their pusillanimous ways.

I will look at Alexander again, but I suspect he voted for them at some stage, but not the final one.

When I made my “Congressional Vote Score Card” ( http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2406579/posts ), I ran into the same issue. At that time I used the convention of showing the final vote when it originated in the house, not the final passage. Unfortunate you have to be a detective at times, these cretin have a habit of taking an unrelated bill and writing a bill into it and then passing the new bill under the old number. (completely different text) They did this on the DADT Bill. I had a hard time finding that vote because they did not want anyone to find it. Cockroaches do not like the daylight, nor do lying POLs.

I stand corrected:

Alexander did vote for S5.10 on final passage:

I collected them manually and somehow overlooked it.

MurCOWski has returned in a furor.

I knew she would.

Alexander voted Nay on the final passage of the DADT repeal.

http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=111&session=2&vote=00281

See also explaining the bill title was over written:

http://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/vote_menu_111_2.htm

search for 00281 (vote number) Just to the right it indicates they removed the previous bill entirely and overwrote the DADT repeal wording.

Legislation by stealth, a Leftie Dem trademark.

That said, they may have already been assured passage and this allowed him cover for his support. Although he is registered as a Republican, he certainly acts like a Leftie Dem. Deceptive to the bone.

MurCOWski is what's wrong with the Republican Party. I can't believe that witch has just been handed the opportunity to damage America for another 6 years.

I've spent my last tourist dollar in Alaska.

Yep, Murki is a real slimeball. Just like her corrupt father. Cornyn made a real serious mistake to send the chief council form the Republican Senatorial Committee to help her after she was defeated in the primary.

The state of AK will pay dearly for her treachery. She bought the write in with their tax dollars and with Dem like election fraud. I read that the court ruled against Miller yesterday.

The original post does, my post #12 is cleaned up. Only problem that I am aware of is that Alexander did vote for S.510. Missed that one.

Posting HTML tables like this is time consuming and it is easy to make a formatting error. (column alignment issues in HTML)

I composed it in Gnumeric and had issues when I originally posted the table. Did not immediately see it, but fixed it in post #12
