48. Looks like I'm not the only one who wrote about the lack of Dem spine...

OK, now, Cali...defend Leahy for going ahead with the hearings despite having to break his promise for the subpoenaed materials. Defend the fact that Mukasey only got 53 votes, AND WAS CONFIRMED, when the Democratic leadership could have required SIXTY votes.

Again, when you have the power to do what's right (and, in this case, the Democrats certainly had the power)...and, don't do it...you are acting cowardly.

Spines.they.don't.have.
