Note there was only one Republican who both voted for DADT and the DREAM Act: Lisa Murkowski!
There were 52 Democrats (and Independents) who voted for both.
But the Hall of Shame is for the 5 Democratic Dream Killers who voted against the DREAM Act (Baucus, Hagan, Nelson, Pryor, Tester). Three of these Senators are up for re-election in 2012 (likely to be a harsh year for Senate Democrats) and I pledge to donate to their primary challengers.
Here's the roll call vote on the 55-41 cloture vote on the DREAM Act which FAILED.
