That means, according to my guesswork, DREAM has 59 good yes votes. However, I have to immediately add that I could be wrong. I am particularly worried about numbers 54 and 55 on my list (Collins and Murkowski). My advice to Dreamers is to amp up the pressure on those two. And also amp up the pressure on others not on the list, but who are within reach (Baucus, Manchin, Ensign, Brownback, and Voinovich).
If I am wrong about Collins, Murkowski, or both, make up for it with those remaining five I mention. My hunch tells me that the easiest of the five to get would be Ensign. Manchin and Voinovich are complete wild cards, and pressure should be put on them like crazy.

Ensign should learn from Harry Reid (as they are both from Nevada).

Is there any indication that Collins might vote for the Dream Act? Last time I've heard Snowe was a definite no due to ridiculous reasons. Don't they kinda vote together?
