First, the vote was mostly along party lines:
- No Republican voted against the confirmation
- All but 10 Democrats voted against the confirmation
- Final tally was 53 for, 40 against
But here's the bigger issue. None of the senators in the 2008 presidential race voted!
Cowards
- Joe Biden
- Hillary Clinton
- Christopher Dodd
- Barack Obama
Infidels
- Evan Bayh
- Thomas Carper
- Dianne Feinstein
- Mary Landrieu
- Ben Nelson
- Chuck Schumer
- Joe Lieberman (he's an infidel because he voted for the confirmation AND because he abandoned his party)
