Although a simple majority does not a constitutional amendment make. Just the same, it is good to see that there are more potential votes in favor than before.

It was interesting watching Ken Salazar act like he’s a Conservative Democrat during his campaign. And it’s funny to hear people claim Barack Obama leans Conservative. Because on votes like this they are as Liberal as they always are. These 2 men played on some Conservatives during their campaigns, but if you check their voting records you will see they are total Liberals.

Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) does not support the amendment.
