I think that for once in his life, we'll finally see what he REALLY believes is right.

Too bad he had to wait until he's 80 fucking years old before that happens.

Shall we place bets?

His true colors will be revealed. Or maybe he'll even switch back to repug.

2. Could he switch back and run as a Republican in the fall?

5. Is anything of substance going to be voted on in the next several months?
Besides the confirmation of Elana Kagan, I really don't think any Senate votes are going to make the evening news until January, 2011.

6. Not necessarily.
He may simply now vote in the way which is most likely to get him a cushy retirement.
