If You’re Still Wondering Which Senator Is Responsible For The Secret Hold

You may want to put your money down on Ted Stevens.

Though, frankly, I'd pretty much decided it was him since day one.

Update: It's for sure.

Alaska just threw out their governor in the Republican primary.

Stevens is up in 2008.  Is he running again?  If not, hopefully the Alaskans Republicans keep their attitude towards crappy incumbents.

Well,guttermouth, that’s what you get for spending so much time with your pig and your sex fantasies that you couldn’t get it right. What?  you can’t get anything right! Remember to wash up now!

Yep. There are those defective brain meds kicking in again. Perhaps you could sue for malpractice? Oh, yea, you surrendered that right when you signed up for your union’s healthcare plan. Poor, stupid you.

This is too funny, ..Ted “the Hulk” Stevens put the secret hold on the bill because HE WAS AFRAID IT FUNDING WOULD BE TOO EXPENSIVE!

Now the following is just hellerious, ..

Here was my prediction before we knew who put the secret hold on the bill:

My bet is on Ted “the Hulk” Steven . ..fiscal conservatives (Coburn, etc) and Democrats have embarassed him. Being the president pro tempore of the Senate, The Hulk has lots of power. and he is also very big on payback/getting even..

..read this article by Rober Novak!!!!

to make this post more Neutral let me say my second bet is on his fellow Paleo-Senator, but I highly doubt it. (I’m willing to put the overwhelming majority of my money on Ted Stevens)

Now RedState.com has this:

And to make the story even more interesting - it appears that now a Democratic member has placed their own hold on the bill. Ugh.
....

[UPDATE BY ERICK] RedState has been told reliably that Sen. Byrd is the Democrat who also has a hold on the bill.

2 Senators who have a great deal to hide, I imagine the scrambling and ass covering is kicking into over drive. $ to a donut Byrd will claim today it was a miscommunication by his staff.
