That may ultimately be the solution, so that Hillary, instead of having a 38-delegate vote margin, her margin would be 19, and it would conform to the DNC rules, which is what they should have done in the first place eight months ago.

I point out that the Alexander amendment takes away the sensible moratorium, which Congress just adopted and the President signed 3 months ago, which prevents commercial oil shale leasing before the impacts of those technologies are known…

It was a Republican legislature and a Republican governor that changed the date.

What he is pushing is this idea of a re-vote, but not just a re-vote, a re-vote by mail.

Last year, we had the largest crib recall in history--almost 1 million baby cribs--because three infant deaths were noted in the recall announcement. After the announcement, even more came to light. Most of us would be shocked to learn…

We have got a major train wreck.

Well, if you take two major delegations, Michigan and Florida, and if you stiff-arm them at the convention -- and that's only two months before the general election -- that's going to be pretty hard to try to bring the unity that we need…

We've got a major train wreck.

I can't imagine going in to a convention in late August, only two months before the election, not seating the Florida and the Michigan delegations, and telling them that their votes don't count, and then being able to heal that breach in…

Now, what we ought to do is, as the good book says, come, let us reason together, and let's find a solution.

At no fault of the Florida Democrats. It was a Republican legislature, signed into law by a Republican governor.

E pluribus unum--out of many, one. I am grateful to the Senator from West Virginia for reminding not only me but the whole Senate of that duty, that responsibility, that obligation we all have.

Today Senator Bill Nelson of Florida said he'll draft election to change that, to be voted on as early as next week.

That was a heck of a piece.

I wish to say thank you to my colleagues. I am so grateful. We have worked this thing pretty hard. It is right that NASA be given some of these funds they had to expend on an emergency basis for the recovery to flight of the Space Shuttle…

All four of the Armed Services and Appropriations Committee bills eliminated this $10 million for the proposed space test bed because that is the initial step toward deploying space-based interceptors for missile defense. So everybody…

I want to be careful in what I say because under some highly classified programs, this Senator simply cannot discuss these matters. If the Senator wants to press his amendment to a vote, this Senator suggests he is not going to have the…

The Senate has just witnessed one of the most insightful analyses by the chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee on the present-day changes on planet Earth and how the United States should adapt to it by virtue of the fact of…

I just hope and pray we don't have to go through a major hurricane strike and damage as a result of lessened predictability in order to get the money for this new satellite.

I just hope and pray we don't have to go through a major hurricane strike and damage.

How do you envision this new African Command taking on certain subjects that are peculiar to that particular command, for example, child soldiers or countering the role of civil militias.

This just shouldn't be happening in America. And why is our CPSC letting it happen?

We support what Senator Pryor is doing in his subcommittee. Hopefully, we can produce this out of our full Commerce Committee and get it moving.

If the Chinese Government is not going to police it, and if the Chinese industry isn't going to police it, then there's an easy way for us to insist.

There is no excuse that the CPSC has a laboratory that looks like that. And a large part of what Senator Pryor has just outlined will address that.
