I think all the senate DINO's are now "retired"

except for maybe Evan Bayh. It looks at first glance like the remaining Dems are real Dems, so that mean WE really occupy 45% of the Senate. It's not a bad place to build from, really. If we can reclaim Norm Coleman's seat and get Chaffee to jmp and Snowe to vote with us, we might be able to head off the worst of *'s agenda.

3. Bob Graham voted against this war. Sadly, few paid attention.

Now he's leaving the Senate, but he will be out fighting beside us, don't ever doubt it.

2. Not according to the DU definition of "DINO"

I've heard the following called "DINOS" here over the last 3 years:

Diane Feinstein
Evan Bayh
Joe Lieberman
Bill Nelson
Ben Nelson
Mark Pryor
Max Baucus
Kent Conrad
Byron Dorgan
Mary Landrieu

Other than Lieberman, none even come close to my definition (ie a Zell Miller)

BTW, the DU definition of DINO sometimes appears to be anyone who doesn't vote 100% liberal/left/progressive. While all of these senators have, on occasion, voted less than perfectly IMO, none deserve to be called "DINO".
