Salazar gets it part right

Sen. Ken Salazar has decided he will vote for cloture but against the nomination of Judge Sam Alito. Not voting for cloture would have been a big problem for him politically. I am still waiting to find out how the electorate will react nationwide to 30+ Democrats voting against a guy this qualified, well liked, and mainstream. This is the move of a coolaid drinking lefty, not a centrist.

This is a deal breaker for me. I was willing to give Salazar a chance to represent me since he was supposedly a centrist. Unless the Republicans run somebody completely reprehensible they can expect a few bucks and a couple votes from my wife and myself to unseat him. Maybe we can get our esteemed Gov to run after a couple years off. He doesn't seem to be on anybody's short list for Pres.
