All six are listed as "part-way there or wavering" by Move-On. Move-On gives them credit for being part-way there if they have made no statement. I think agreeing to be a Third Way Honorary Co-Chair is a statement. Third Way has been an active promoter of a "grand bargain" that would cut Social Security benefits. One of their publications here: http://www.thirdway.org/publications/613

The six: Carper and Coons, (DE), Hagan (NC), Udall (CO), Shaheen (NH), and McCaskill (MO).
