CCW Reciprocity Amendment Fails in US Senate

From Hoosier Access commenter Nathan Brindle on One Man’s Vote:

“Failed a 3/5 majority requirement by 2 votes, 58-39, 3 not voting.
Here is the roll call vote. F*****g Lugar voted NAY. Bayh, surprisingly enough, voted YEA.
Feel free to find your own local gun-banner senileator and give it what-fer.”

You can tell when Bayh’s senate term is up for a vote – He goes from liberal to moderate.

The comments on Nathan’s blog:

Jeff Naylor writes: “Lugar: Anti-gun, pro-Sotomayor. Sounds like a Dem to me.”

Christopher Hodapp writes: “My God, Lugar has got to go.He gets worse every year that passes, and he’s overstayed his welcome.“

  1. Richard Lugar was once a great Senator and a source of pride for all Hoosiers. However, in the twilight of his career, he has truly become a Republican in name only. This is the result of just too many years in the Senator’s club in Washington, D.C. I had an opportunity to speak with Senator Lugar at Governor Daniels’ Inauguration. It was painfully obvious to me that the Senator is beginning to slip in regards to his cognitive skills. Like many a great athlete, it appears that Senator Lugar has just stayed one season too many. It is time for him to retire. It is sad, but everyone’s time must come. I sincerely hope that his closest friends and advisors will have the guts to give him the painful news.
