There will be immense pressure by the Democratic party for the party members to vote against. That being said, I think contacting (D) congressmen and women is just as important, or more important than contacting (R) congresspeople. If the (D)'s get an onslaught of emails, phone calls, and faxes supporting the bill, they may think twice about what their constituents want, especially if they are up for reelection soon.

As far as the generic, wishy-washy response from Vasey, I would take it as a sign that he either opposes it and doesn't want to tell supporters that, or that he opposes it and just hasn't prepared a specific response to this bill. Of course, there's a slim (to none) chance that he actually hasn't given it any thought.

No matter what his current state, or the current state of any of the (D)'s, we need to keep hammering them with contacts (phone, email, fax) to make sure we are heard.

Called my rep this morning. Aide was not able to tell me if he's for or against, but I'm going to guess with the capital (D) next to his name.
