Boxer voted NO? Socialist Sauders? What is up with that. Note the vast majority of the votes FOR the bill were Democrats.

I will give credit where credit is due, even if it is to a liberal, and thank my Democrat Senator McCaskill for voting no. Her spokesman said she is opposed to amnesty.

Like the saying goes: Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

45 to 50? Do we realize that it only took 3 spineless Republicans to vote Yea to screw the rest of America?

With votes that close, you can bet this is a “done deal.” The “Fix” is in...problem is, the Lemmings don’t know it yet.

Bill Nelson voted for the Immigration Bill. And all of this time, he’s been pretending that he’d vote against it.

Is there a way to tell who switched their votes once the AMNESTY bill was going to be blocked? Need to identify the fence jumps with their moistened fingers in the wind.

There was no doubt in my mind what the two retards from Maryland would do. Maryland Republicans havent had Representation in the Senate in my lifetime. Now we have the RINO Gilchrist to dispose of in the House..

It would be interesting to find out how many of those Senators voting against this monstrosity are up for re-election in 08. Mark Pryor (D-AR) is one.

Maybe the reverberations from the 06 election are stronger than the bot-loyalists wanted to believe.

"Lugar (R-IN) YEA"

That vote is going to hurt him here in Indiana, there has already been a lot of grumbling about new blood there, and this will be used as a big club by our local Republican districts to get him replaced finally.

What happened to Brownback. He seems to be absent when it
comes to immigration.

I see our Georgia senators voted the will of the Georgia people finally. Georgians have been calling, emailing etc for weeks now. I guess they finally got the message-no amnesty.

In fact yesterday, Chris Crock (I don’tknow if this is how you spell his name) had a anti-amnesty rally off of 41 and Akers Mill last night-big crowd I’d say.

Congratulations to Chambliss and Isakson, who, despite their initial treachery, did the right thing in the end, and will retain my vote.

OK: Here are the RINOs who voted YEA.

Who is the worst RINO in the Senate?

While we are in the minority seems like a great time to clean house. If we were going to target these guys in primaries who should we go after first?

Should some of them be spared because they are otherwise fine Republicans?

My take: Hagel needs to go first.

I am also hoping Arlen can be knocked off. He barely survived a primary challenge last time, we owe it to him and ourselves to try again. The ad campaign for his opponent could be theme'd "Had enough yet?"

Finally I'd put Lindsey Graham on the list. He is moving in the wrong direction, and is likley to start being 'the new Hagel' -- lauded by people like CNN and George Stephanopolis. Better to toss him now while he's just growing to big for his britches, rather thay wait until he's filled them out.

I think McCain's career is over with his failed run for President and I don't expect him to stay in the Senate next term. I know less about the remaining three: Lugar, Martinez and Voinovich. Martinez is head of the RNC, at the very least he needs to get out of that job.

The Yeas: RINO targets for replacement

Graham (R-SC)
Hagel (R-NE)
Lugar (R-IN)
Martinez (R-FL)
McCain (R-AZ)
Specter (R-PA)
Voinovich (R-OH)
