That sure is disappointing. Schumer's my senator and though he's not my favorite (the other NY senator, Kirsten Gillibrand, is my favorite since she used to be my congresswoman, here in NY-20 ), I never thought he was poor on the environment. And why was this just a slap on the wrist??

And I've always liked Sestak, that really is a shame. It was tough for me to believe that he wouldn't have the votes, given his experience and background, let alone his stand on the issues.

If you haven't, you should post this as an OP...
