No-Voters

In case you're wondering who were the brave baker's dozen that voted against confirming Condoleezza Rice's as Secretary of State, here they are:

Daniel Akaka, D-Hawaii
Evan Bayh, D-Indiana
Barbara Boxer, D-California
Robert Byrd, D-West Virginia
Mark Dayton, D-Minnesota
Dick Durbin, D-Illinois
Tom Harkin, D-Iowa
Jim Jeffords, I-Vermont
Ted Kennedy, D-Massachusetts
John Kerry, D-Massachusetts
Frank Lautenberg, D-New Jersey
Carl Levin, D-Michigan
Jack Reed, D-Rhode Island

Not a Republican among them. Every single Republican Senator believes that Condi's perfect for the job.

You'll notice quite a few Democrats do, too. Or, even if they don't, they voted for her anyway. (Thanks a lot, Biden.)
