Jesse Helms finally accomplished something significant in his Senate career - his funeral tomorrow will delay the votes on FISA by one day.

The votes on amendments and the final bill are now more likely to occur on Wednesday. This means one additional day for grassroots efforts to get the entire Senate on the record over whether or not they will stand with the Constitution. Blue America's tools are still active. I've been pretty pessimistic on the outcome all along, but that's no reason to stop fighting.
