"GOP Reaches to Other Party on Court Pick:
Edited on Wed Nov-02-05 12:41 PM by Norquist Nemesis
This is from Ed Schultz' site at www.wegoted.com

Yesterday, a few threads were discussing whether any Democrats would be voting Yes on Alito (particularly the Gang of 14). http://www.wegoted.com/News/more.asp?ID=433">Here's the direct link to comments from some of the Gang.

Meetings Set-up with Democratic Senators from Red States
The Administration quickly turned to moderate Democrats who could be crucial to the confirmation as the two sides brace for a polarizing fight over Judge Alito's legal views

The White House hurried Judge Alito into a get-acquainted session with Senator Tim Johnson, a Democrat who represents the solidly Republican state of South Dakota, even before the judge met with senior Democrats on the Judiciary Committee

On Wednesday, the judge is scheduled to meet with Senator Ben Nelson of Nebraska, a moderate Democrat who helped engineer a Senate pact to break a stalemate this year over judicial nominations

On Thursday Alito meets with Senator Mark Pryor of Arkansas, another moderate Democrat who is part of the "Gang of 14"

1. I wrote Pryor
who is my Senator, about this matter. No reply as of yet. But he tends to take forever to answer.
