compare the list of Dems who voted to confirm Roberts & Alioto...
..with those Dems who lost their seats.

I blame the loss of Feingold and Grayson and the other targeted Dems on the confirmation of Justices Roberts & Alioto. Without those massive amounts of money from places like the Chamber of Commerce, the results might have been different.

I'm going looking for that list of Dems who voted to confirm Bush's appointments

1. Mike Oliverio, our Dem candidate from WV District 1, lost tonight.
He was publicly congratulated by Bush for his hard work in getting Alito confirmed.

Of course, Oliverio is a DINO whose positions are pretty much identical to the newly-elected Republican David McKinley, so it's not exactly a death blow for us. We'd already lost the House long before our precincts finished reporting.

2. Feingold himself voted to confirm Roberts
so you might start there.
