The Fighting 13

The NY Sun has an article on the Fighting 13, the thirteen Republicans fighting against curbing the war powers of the president and which John Thune is part of:

But yesterday he [McCain] stuck out as a leader in the hawkish camp, one of the 13 senators, all Republicans, who opposed the Senate efforts to rein in the president's war powers. They voted not only against an attempt by Senator Levin of Michigan to hamstring the American war effort in Iraq, but also against the effort by Senator Warner of Virginia to second-guess President Bush and his generals. The fighting 13 are listed by name alongside this editorial, and they deserve the thanks of Americans and of Iraqis who want to win the struggle for freedom and against terrorism in that country.

UPDATE:  From Power Line:

Here is the list of the 13 Republican Senators who voted against the "cut-and-run light" resolution passed by the Senate yesterday (actually that label is too strong, but it felt good using it):

Bunning, Burr, Chambliss, Coburn, DeMint, Graham, Inhofe, Isakson, Kyl, McCain, Sessions, Thune, and Vitter.

Notice that the only northerner on the list is John Thune.
