Senator Olympia Snowe (R-ME) Says She'll Vote for 'DADT' Repeal

[davidinalameda]

As the measure to repeal "DADT" now heads to the Senate for approval, Senator Olympia Snowe of Maine says she'll do the right thing.

Said Snowe in a statement:

"After careful analysis of the comprehensive report compiled by the Department of Defense and thorough consideration of the testimony provided by the Secretary of Defense, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the service chiefs, I support repeal of the 'don’t ask, don’t tell' law."

Snowe was a "no" vote in last week's failed attempt to pass the Defense authorization bill with 'DADT' repeal attached as an amendment.

1. But will she vote for cloture?

I doubt it.

2. No, she will not vote for cloture. Collins won't either and will back out at the last minute.
