I called Claire McCaskill's

On September 18th, 2009 Ryan says:

I called Claire McCaskill's DC office and some staffer said that if a Senator co-sponsors a bill it doesn't mean they will vote for it? And thus conversely, they could (obviously) vote for it and not co-sponsor.

Anyway, I'd like to force the Senators to give a reason why they won't support the bill and kind of push them into a corner of defending the indefensible.

She probably feels pretty

On September 18th, 2009 cactus1010 says:

She probably feels pretty safe toeing the party line since she's not up for reelection until 2012. By then she thinks her constituents will have forgotten, because they always do. Voters short memories are what politicians count on.

On August 4th, 2009 ruckmanite says:

begich? Is he kin to nick begich the author of angels dont play this haarp?
his father was a senator as memory recalls who died in a plane crash in alaska. i always thought that was fishy and i was right. turns out nick begich always thought it was fishy too. Senator? begich and another passenger crashed not far outside of a town. they were seen walking about a mile away from it according to declassified reports. a satellite was watching them but they never made it and as i remember bodies were never recovered. BILL CLINTON DROVE THEM TO THE PLANE ha ha ha. it doesnt get any wilder than the real world. nick begich always seemed left wing to me. but now another begich is not supporting the audit the fed bill. thats a wierd family.
