Bill to end "sanctuary cities" fails in the Senate

My senator, Mel Martinez, voted with six other Republicans (mostly RINOS) against Senator Norm Coleman's bill.
I've e-mailed a message expressing my disappointment to Mr. Martinez.

It's inexcusable that cities can assist lawbreakers in avoiding apprehension by the federal government through a policy of non-enforcement. And the threat of foreign terrorists among illegal aliens makes the vote even more ridiculous.

Here's the list of Republicans joining a whole bunch of Democrats on this one (hat tip to Captain's Quarters):

Graham (R-SC)
Hagel (R-NE)
Lugar (R-IN)
Martinez (R-FL)
Snowe (R-ME)
Specter (R-PA)
Voinovich (R-OH)

Selected Democat votes:
Bayh (D-IN), Yea
Biden (D-DE), Nay
Clinton (D-NY), Nay
Obama (D-IL), Nay

Reads like soft on illegal immigration is expected to be a hit with Democrat voters, doesn't it?
