Foreign Relations Committee Chairman John Kerry (D-Mass.) has only one Republican on board, Sen. Richard Lugar (Ind.), the ranking member on the panel. Lugar says he will help Kerry lobby wavering GOP senators this fall.

Much of the push-and-pull in the Senate on START has centered on a struggle between Kerry and GOP Whip Jon Kyl (Ariz.), a skeptic of the treaty. Kyl has cited missle defense issues when expressing opposition to START.
