I dislike a lot of Dems, but Durbin ranks right up there with Chuck Schumer in the “makes my skin crawl” dept.

"...afraid of this new force, the Tea Party force...."

Dead we are (not).

[Cincinatus' Wife]

It would seem not.

:)

I think Boehner persuaded alright.

He stirred up a tsunami of conservative “Irish.”

Vote them all out except Cruz, Rubio, Lee, Sessions....time for a grand cleaning out! Let the 2014 TEA PARTY BEGIN!

Durbin is as close to a “lock” as there is.
68% of the vote last time.
> 2 million vote MOV.

Well, Traitor Dick(head)Turban Durbin......

I’m glad SOMEONE has the brains to ‘imperil’ this stupid deal, that will further destroy the economy.

[skinkinthegrass]

good riddance..
an 0'Blahblah trap.

[mulligan]

Durbin is worse than scum.

[ez]

So who are the three Dems he will lose? I guess one is landrieu. One is probably Nelson. Any other guesses?

[dadfly]

durbin: calling all closet leftist republicans. we need you this time.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Little Dickie sure do hate those wascally Americans!

[Paladin2]

Pryor.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

According to the same reporter (in an earlier article) Landrieu is a “yes” vote.

“.....Centrist Democrats such as Sens. Mary Landrieu (D-La.) and Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) say they will vote “yes.”

Correct, the rumors of demise of the Tea Party are grossly exaggerated.

[ncalburt]

i suspect loses Hagan, Pryor , and crooked Mary L and maybe the NH senator.

“I dislike a lot of Dems, but Durbin ranks right up there with Chuck Schumer in the “makes my skin crawl” dept.”

Yup. And you can toss in Harry Reid and Barbara Boxer. Utterly reprehensible people.
