I just looked up what you're talking about... from Fox News, there are a few Democratic Senators, all the most conservative ones from the most conservative states -- Pryor, Manchin, Begich, Landrieu.... the only sort of exception is Jeanne Shaheen, but she's a conservative from a blueish state that has a reputation for libertarianism... these are all squishy Democrats who slide over the aisle when it's expedient. Hell, Manchin shot a Democratic cap-and-trade bill with a shotgun in an ad.
