Wow. When I went to bed last night, the bipartisan blog-based effort to unmask the secret senator who has placed a "secret hold" on legislation designed to bring transparency to our government had eliminated over half of the Senate's roster. Today? Today they've narrowed the list to one of six!
They are: Sens. Robert Byrd (D-WV), Mike Crapo (R-ID), Judd Gregg (R-NH), Orrin Hatch (R-UT), Ted Stevens (R-AK), and Robert Bennett (R-UT).
My guess is by tomorrow one of two things will happen: either the masked man will be identified or the hold will be lifted. An up or down vote, that's all we ask....
