Buyer's Remorse

A poll done by ABC News shows that 57 senators who served when the Iraq War Resolution was put up to vote would have voted against the authorization knowing what they know now. That number includes the 23 who had already voted against it at the time. The Repubs who were turned includes Kay Bailey Hutchinson, Olympia Snowe, Susan Collins, Mike Grassley, Mike Dewine and Arlen Spector.

Out of the 43 who didn't say they will vote against the war, Ben Nelson stands as the lone idiot Dem among the 15 who still stands by their vote for the disaster. Joe Lieberman, who obviously still stands by his vote, doesn't count since he's his own party now.

Blanche Lincoln and Zig-Zag Zell were among the 25 cowards who either refused to embarrass themselves even further or don't want to take a stand for sanity by answering the poll. Three of the senators, most famously Tim Johnson and Strom Thurmond, are incapacited.
