I got back a nice e-mail, a form of course, sent out to anyone writing on this subject, whether they want Nelson to vote up or down. In the e-mail he indicates that he'll weigh all the information carefully and said (emphasis mine):
It is important that we confirm a justice who will be a voice of reason and a staunch defender of our constitutional rights.
Yeah, that's what I say. Of course his idea and mine about what that means might be different.
Didn't bother writing to my other Senator...Republican Mel Martinez.

Hi Bitty,
I live in Florida too and got the same so-called response back from Bill Nelson. I'm a Libra as well. I agree, no point in writing or calling Martinez. I found out about your blog from Shakespeare's Sister (she blogrolled you today).
Did she? How cool.
I was actually considering writing to Martinez just to remind him that we who disapprove of Alito are out here!
