5. right, once they announce their vote on the floor..... |
|
doesn't that make it official?
Or can the senate twist arms until the last minute just like the house of reps?
Damn, I wish I'd paid attention during high school civics class!

4. what would be the point in that? |
|
maybe to allow a repug to feel safe enough to vote no, thinking Alito would be confirmed anyway?
Then why was that press release issued yesterday?
I don't get what he's doing.
