Thanks. I continue to find the near silence in
the media about this "stealth" vote rather amazing.
It appears that there were three Dems voting no,
Bingaman, Feingold, and Hollings, of whom only
Feingold can be said to be at all on the left. Of
course one could get cynical and say that it was
an appeal to the non-trivial Serb vote in Milwaukee,
but then Feingold was the only Dem in the Senate to
oppose Byrd's "end the impeachment" motion.
