Thread: Senators that changed positions on 1st/2nd cloture votes

Senators that switched from Nay's to Yea's from 1st to 2nd Cloture vote.

Conrad (D-ND)**

Graham (R-SC)*

Hagel (R-NE)**

Kerry (D-MA)*

Levin (D-MI)**

Lugar (R-IN)**

Martinez (R-FL)*

McCain (R-AZ)*

Reid (D-NV)*

Specter (R-PA)*

Stabenow (D-MI)**

Voinovich (R-OH)**

(7 Reps, 5 Dems)

(State distribution - 1 each, except Michigan: both switched! GRRRR!)

*: 'Expected Disappointents'
**: 'Unexpected' or big Disappointments


And the following senators either 'chickened-out' or went AWOL
in the last cloture vote:

Brownback (R-KS; ok, that's not a huge surprise)
Coburn (R-OK; ????)
Enzi (R-WY; ????)

=============

I include this, as to help focus on those that need an increase level of 'attention' - especially, for those that weren't expected to let us down, but did in the end (eg. the 2nd cloture vote).

Thanks Phred, those missing senators must be the ones they sent aids out to try and find!!!
