The Hate Crime Bill has passed — five Republicans voted for it. According to The Hill,

Five Republican senators joined Democrats in supporting the bill: Sens. Susan Collins (Maine), Richard Lugar (Ind.), Lisa Murkowski (Alaska), Olympia Snowe (Maine) and George Voinovich (Ohio).

I checked to see if these were the same Republicans who voted that Bill Clinton was not guilty of perjury or obstruction of justice, and two them were — Collins and Snowe. Jim Jeffords and Arlen Specter were also Republicans who voted to acquit Clinton, but they're not Republicans anymore, and Specter voted — with every single Democrat in the Senate — for passage of the hate crimes bill.
