1. "And Senate will likely vote down the challenge by voice?" How cowardly!

CAPITOL BUZZ
RE: Election certification--I'm hearing Barbara Boxer will support challenge and the Senate will likely vote down the challenge by voice.

2. I don't think they can vote it down by voice before the 2 hour time
alloted. They might try, though. They think they can get away with anything...

3. No, they'll probably do the voice vote right after the 2 hour debate
Wham, Bam, thank you Mame

4. On another thread, they said a Filibuster in Senate is being considered
on Jan. 6. A group called CAEF (Coal. Against Elec. Fraud) is looking into the legality of a Senate Filibuster on Jan 6. If so, it could go on as long as there are Senators willing to stand and debate it.

Gawd I would love that! They could still be debating it on Jan. 20 and beyond! Kerry would even be back in time to participate.

Hold the vision. Keep the faith!

5. They can shout her down, but WE WILL HEAR HER!!
And this voter, who actually voted for republican presidential candidates in the PAST, will demand that Barbara Boxer be our next president. If she does this, she will be my hero, along with John Conyers, for the rest of my life.

And... scr*w National Review! NRO conveniently ignores the fact that the original founder of National Review, William F. Buckley, came out strongly in opposition to this fraudulent Iraq war.
