Grand Bargainers and re-election

Senators of the 110th Congress and their dates for re-election can be found at Senators. Also you will find a link: What does class mean? Here is the answer:
class - Article I, section 3 of the Constitution requires the Senate to be divided into three classes for purposes of elections. Senators are elected to six-year terms, and every two years the members of one class—approximately one-third of the Senators—face election or reelection. Terms for Senators in Class I expire in 2013, Class II in 2009, and Class III in 2011.
The list of the "grand bargainers" with narratives can be found with links at Senate's 'behind closed doors' grand bargainers. The grand bargainers - working behind closed doors to flood our nation with more illegals immigrants and to let those who over-stay their visas be given a path to citizenship: Class II - terms expire in 2009: (the Republicans on this list are not guaranteed re-election) Our memories may be short these days but I think we can remember two names for a year or so. Richard "The Turban" Durbin (D-Illinois) Saxby Chambliss (R-Ga.) Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) Class III - terms expire in 2011: (all are safe for re-election probably) Patrick J. Leahy (D-VT) Ken Salazar (D-CO) Charles E. Schumer (NY) Johnny Isakson (R-Ga.) Mel Martinez (R-Florida) Arlen "The Magic Bullet" Specter (R-PA) Class I (have just been re-elected or elected for the first time) - terms expire in 2013: (so pretty safe for re-election) Diane Feinstein (D-CA) Edward M. Kennedy (D-MA) Jon Kyl (R-Ariz.) As you'll note, most of these folks have election bids after the 2009 elections. This is not by accident. These folks are counting on us having short memories. Let's remember them. I am particularly offended by the notion that the 85% of Americans who are against this "amnesty" bill are considered bigots against people of Hispanic descent. But wait, a large number of that percentage are of Hispanic descent, fully integrated and prospering in America which is their home. But, does that "bigot" comment mean that the Americans of Hispanic descent support illegal aliens entering our nation from many nations, some from Mexico, and that Americans of Hispanic descent want all of our wages depressed. That's what the comment means but that comment is wrong. Americans of Hispanic descent are hardworking, loyal Americans first, of Hispanic descent second. My ancestors are from the British Isles, does that make me British or Irish or Scots first. No, I'm American just like the rest of us who are law-abiding and are American citizens first before ethnicity. The "diversity" crowd won't divide us. These Senators who disparage us all for our stance against this bill that rewards illegal behavior are condescending and need to be removed from office.
