Amnesty Bill on the Brink?

From the very smart (and very connected) Rob Bluey:

Well-placed sources tell me that activists are focusing their attention on the following list of senators: Sam Brownback (R.-Kan.), Richard Burr (R.-N.C.), Saxby Chambliss (R.-Ga.), Larry Craig (R.-Idaho), Pete Domenici (R.-N.M.), Byron Dorgan (D.-N.D.), John Ensign (R.-Nev.), Mike Enzi (R.-Wyo.), Judd Gregg (R.-N.H.), Johnny Isakson (R.-Ga.), Jon Kyl (R.-Ariz.), Mary Landrieu (D.-La.), Trent Lott (R.-Miss.), Mitch McConnell (R.-Ky.), Claire McCaskill (D.-Mo.), Ben Nelson (D.-Neb.), Mark Pryor (D.-Ark.), Debbie Stabenow (D.-Mich.), John Sununu (R.-N.H.), Jon Tester (D.-Mont.), George Voinovich (R.-Ohio), Jim Webb (D.-Va.), and John Warner (R.-Va.).

And if you have already called him, now, would probably be a good time to call him again.

Those toll-free Amnesty Hotline numbers to your senators, btw, are :

1-800-882-2005. (Spanish number)

1-800-417-7666. (English number)

Call them. Call them often. Let them know, in no uncertain terms, that a vote for cloture is political suicide.

As you probably know, Kansas Senator Sam Brownback has his eye on the White House. Wherever you live, you might want to consider calling Sam Brownback's office and letting him know there's really no reason his political future needs to go down the tubes over John McCain's personal political death wish. You can reach Sam Brownback here.
