Menendez onboard for Censure?

"What a lazy, dishonest hack job. John Kerry has been saying right out of the gate he would support the resolution, Boxer's office has been confirming that she would and so has Menendez. And now Harkin (above) has signed on as a co-sponsor. Counting Feingold himself, that's five.

Only three Democrats have indicated they definitely don't support the measure -- Dodd, Dayton and (no surprise) Holy Joe."

Can anyone verify this? They don't seem to know in Jersey either!

It appears the phone calls are having an effect. Although Mark Dayton told Bloomberg that Feingold's censure resolution was "premature, and over- reaching, which often involves losing more than gaining," callers to his offices are now reporting that he has backed off of this and has decided to take no position.

7. Here is what I wrote to Dayton........

Senator Dayton,

Sir, with all due respect, I have no idea what you are thinking these days.

There is a Senate Censure Bill introduced by Senator Feingold that apparently you first decided to oppose. Now, it seems you've taken the equally unwise position of "no position" at all.

Senator Dayton, I don't know how you can possibly claim, with a straight face, that holding President Bush responsible for his lies, his assault on our civil and consitutional rights could possibly cost us more than we've already lost under this administration.

Sir, I STRONGLY urge you to reconsider your position and vote for this censure bill, before your refusal to do so starts making you seem more like Bush's friend than our Senator.
