SENATE DEMS FALL SHORT ON VOTE, PLEDGE NEW TACTICS AGAINST WAR

"Washington, Seattle Times News Service - After Republicans blocked a Senate debate for a second time, Democrats said Saturday they will drop efforts to pass a non-binding resolution opposing President Bush's troop buildup in Iraq and will offer a flurry of ant-war legislation just like the days of Vietnam.  

"The tough talk came one day after the House passed its anti-Iraq resolution as the GOP used a procedural vote to stop the Senate from debating the 21,500-troop buildup.  Senator Charles Schumer (D-NY) said his party would be relentless.  `There will be resolution after resolution, amendment after amendment, just like in the days of Vietnam,' Schumer said."
