33. The Senate is not in session.
The longer the issue stays out there, the longer it gets talked about. This is not necessarily a bad thing. The media was using this censure, initially, to bash the Dems. However, the polls revealed that the censure res is not nearly as unpopular as the Rethugs thought it would be.

Let it stay out there for a few more days. I just don't see the down side of this. I don't see what wrong with having citizens pressure their Sens or Reps to take action and giving this process time. (I think the same thing on the protest over a withdrawal time table for Iraq. Pressure never works in one quick motion. Pressure is a process. I want it to play out for a little while longer. There is a purpose to that.)
