Poll question: So what will the confirmation vote for Robert's likely b?
It isn't looking like the Democrats are going to fight it--unless something turns up that is not at this point known. What do you think the vote will be in the Senate?

1. I think it's too early to tell
I sure hope he doesn't get confirmed, but there is still plenty of time for the Senate to be swayed one way or the other.

2. I voted 80 -89
Boxer, Kerry, Kennedy, Durbin, Dorgan, Schumer will all probably vote against, no matter what. (I'm forgetting someone here)

These senators have become the voice of the dems. They are the ones that don't give a crap if they piss off the other senators, and this administration.

3. Too early to give up
and say he will get in for sure. The research is just starting and if the Rove thing keeps going this would damage the WH credibility on all decisions.

4. He can count on 2 Nelsons to confirm.
