Republicans Resolve Remiss

While the President tries to sway Democratic Senators with his Social Security tour, members of his own party remain hesitant.

Sen Pete Domenici (R-NM) says of the President's reform plans, "Politically speaking, right now it's probably not doable."

Sen Susan Collins (R-MN) wants to take a year to study the idea, and Sen Olympia Snowe simply opposes any plan to divert Social Security withholding to private accounts.

And so far, not a single Democrat has endorsed the President's plan. (WashPost)
