Some more Republican "defeatists"

Two Republican senators -- Richard Lugar of Indiana and George Voinovich of Ohio -- joined Warner last month in co- sponsoring a Senate measure that would have required Bush to submit to Congress a contingency plan for troop withdrawals.

Other Senate Republicans who have expressed dissatisfaction with the U.S. course in Iraq include Norm Coleman of Minnesota, Lamar Alexander of Tennessee, John Sununu of New Hampshire, John Cornyn of Texas and Pete Domenici of New Mexico.

Senators Chuck Hagel of Nebraska, Gordon Smith of Oregon, and Olympia Snowe of Maine are the only three Republicans who have broken with Bush to vote with Democrats in favor of a troop withdrawal.
