I like what little I've seen of Snowe and Murray. Otherwise, it does seem demographically remarkable to point out here that this is four women and a man from Vermont, the latter being the only Independent I'm aware of in the Senate. And as to McCain, although he's a Republican, and at times a staunch one, he's also willing to buck his party on certain issues, where he thinks they're particularly wrong. It is also perhaps pointing out that Mr. Stevens would qualify I believe as one of the point men in fighting for the right to drill in his state's ANWR, so we see here a conflict for him to address: the benefits for his constituents of drilling (certainly very substantial!) vs. whatever environmental damage will occur not only from drilling but also... the evidence seems to be showing ... from general fossil fuel over-use.
