Hillary a No Show on Telecom Vote in the Senate

The Senate votes 69-29-2 to let the Telecom companies off the hook for their role in revealing private consumer information to the intelligence community under the direction of the Bush Administration.

Look at the major candidates who are Senators...

Obama voted Nay

McCain voted Yea, to let them off.

And Hillary????

Hillary was one of two senators who did not even vote!

Was this to avoid the casting of a Yea vote, in which she would
later have to explain???
