05/28/09 — A New Jersey Reader Says The GOP Must Challenge Sonia Sotomayor’s Appointment If It Expects To Energize Its Dwindling Base

From: Elizabeth Harris

Re: James Fulford’s Blog: Sotomayor As Substitute For Amnesty

Whoa, Nellie! Sonia Sotomayor is a long way from confirmed.

I count at least twelve often-moderate Democrats who may vote against Sotomayor because of her liberal immigration position, her opposition to Second Amendment rights or both.

They are:

• Max Baucus, (MT)
• Mary Landrieu, (LA)
• Jon Tester, (MT)
• Claire McCaskill, (MO)
• Byron Dorgan, (ND)
• Mark Pyror, (AR)
• John Rockefeller, (WV)
• Ben Nelson, (NE)
• Evan Bayh, (IN)
• Robert Byrd, (WV) *
• Debbie Stabenow (MI)
• Mark Begich, (AK)

*If he recovers from his hospitalization and is well enough to vote.
