7. He's up for re-election
in one of the blood reddest states in the Union, so he gets a pass from me, albeit a reluctant one We need him to win this year. We actually do stand a chance to take back the Senate, and he WILL vote for Reid to be Majority Leader. We take back the Senate, we can actually be an effective opposition party.

3. Someone from WY called in against Alito
Told Nelson to stand with his party. Nelson said he was elected by the people, not the party.

4. This smarmy, mealy-mouthed SOB
is gonna make me lose my breakfast! "I put people ahead of party." Ack!

Anybody know how this clown voted on the Bankruptcy bill? Wanna bet he put people ahead of party on that one, too, by being a Repiglican lick-spittle?

5. I love how he feels he can just "trust" Alito
must be nice to believe someone has no political agenda - personally, I can't.

6. If Alito is so "with" the constitution, why were most of his votes
way way way in the minority? He is really outside the aminstream, not a part of it. Nelson look like someone who has been bought.

14. He voted on the bankruptcy bill the same as he usually votes...
With the Repukes. I can't stand the guy and I've disliked him since I saw him on The Daily Show -- when he claimed to be a "moderate". My bullshit-o-meter went off and it's still going off the more I hear this guy speak.

11. No mercy for his own
Mercy is for the deserving, for our betters.

9. "Alito said what he had to say to get a job in the Reagan administration"
This caller is blowing apart the "I can trust what he says" argument. Good job, caller.

Called out Roberts on his immediate hypocrisy.

Nelson, "I haven't spoken to my colleagues after I made up my mind, I spoke with Judge Alito".
