Nah. Right now the executive branch is more worried about spooking the public than lobbying Congress over a fight they've already won. Also, senators' minds were made up long before the late-afternoon news of this "skyfall" release got out. Besides, how much more support do they need? A vote of 94-3 instead of 90-7? -Declan At 09:35 PM 10/11/01 -0700, Steve Schear wrote:
