How can the Senators be in 2 different places today.. 3 places even
You have the Gonzales hearings @ 1pm
The Electoral Vote @ 1 pm

Are the hearings for Gonzalez in the Judiciary only?
I think that may be the way it is possible.

4. The better question is...can the press (and news coverage) be in .. |
|
two different places at the same time? In other words, I think Gonzales hearing coverage will drown out anything that happens in the Senate today.

8. I'm not talking about live coverage (where a small percentage watches)... |
|
I am talking about tonight's news coverage. I am talking about Ted Koppel tonight. I am talking about radio tomorrow.

12. When a Senator stands |
|
They had better cover it. Shame on them if they don't. I'm running home at lunch and starting my VCR. I want this moment in history on tape, no matter which way it goes.

7. Gonzales will be the big story today |
|
The timing of the hearing is suspicious at best.

9. Agreed on both accounts. |
|
That doesn't mean that the Democrats ought to downplay the hearing. I will be just as upset with that. Opposition at the hearing is actually doable.

13. Do all members of the senate even need to be present... |
|
For the certification? I remember in the 2000 certification one of the challengers said "No I do not have a signature of a member of senate, the SENATE IS ABSENT."
