Six Republicans joined Democrats to table the Boehner resolution were Sens. Jim DeMint (S.C.), Lindsey Graham (S.C.), Orrin Hatch (Utah), Mike Lee (Utah), Rand Paul (Ky.), and David Vitter (La.).

Sens. Jim DeMint (S.C.), Lindsey Graham (S.C.), Orrin Hatch (Utah), Mike Lee (Utah), Rand Paul (Ky.), and David Vitter (La.) DeMint and Rand are good guys and probably voted against it because it was a bad bill and the debt limit shouldn't be increased. Grahamnesty is a long time back stabber. I don't know about the other three.

THEY are trying to get enough votes in the senate to reconsider the original CCB bill that was tabled without debate. Don’t jump to conclusions. These guys are hanging tough on principle. Isn’t that exactly what everybody on all these threads is bitching and moaning about???

So it was the right flank, not the left flank. Interesting.

Mike Lee? He doesn’t want to raise the debt ceiling until a Balanced Budget Amendment has been passed by both houses and sent to the States for ratification.
maybe he just wants to default and see what emerges from the wreckage.
