    Can you imagine if Flake were constrained by a pending re-election? He would be in constant agony. Like watching Mel Gibson’s The Passion of the Christ, over and over, it would be.

  5. Just donated to Bill Nelson and Joe Donnelly as a “thank you” for their no votes. Hopefully, it stiffens their and other Dems’ spines.
