Nobody is really asking the question because it seems unlikely, but would either Romney or Collins take the plunge and provide a guilty vote? It seems inconceivable that Collins could win reelection in Maine without keeping a growing Republican base there. But Romney might just be the sort of guy to push the limits of his "independence" and possible split his vote (guilty on abuse of power, and not-guilty on obstruction). I don't see it "likely" but you never know.
Meanwhile there is really very little buzz surrounding whether or not any Democrats are going to break with their Party and vote to acquit the President. I think the most likely scenario is that two or three break at least on the subject of obstruction. But I could see the lack of witnesses (counterintuitively) swinging some possible acquittal votes to a guilty vote.

Sounds like Warren's shitty question insulting Roberts was the last straw for Murkowski.
It's not over till it's over. And it's not going to be over for a long, long time.
Murkowsky and others admit that justice has not been done.
Rep. Adam Schiff, the Democrats’ lead House impeachment manager, took the question and disagreed with the notion that the way the trial has proceed “contributes to a loss of confidence” in Roberts.
“I think the chief justice has presided admirably,” Schiff said.
The California congressman went on to lament the effect of Trump’s efforts to get Ukraine to launch an investigation against his political opponents on the United States’ international reputation. Still, he said the fact Trump’s alleged abuse of power had resulted in an impeachment trial should restore some confidence in government.
“We don’t always live up to our ideals, but this trial is part of our constitutional heritage — that we were given the power to impeach the president,” Schiff said.
“I don’t think a trial without witnesses reflects adversely on the chief justice,” he said. “I do think it reflects adversely on us. I think it diminishes the power of this example to the rest of the world, if we cannot have a fair trail in the face of this kind of presidential misconduct.”
Schiff added that he did agree with Warren the lack of witnesses allowed in during the Senate impeachment trial would “feed cynicism about this institution.” Republicans appeared poised to block any new witnesses in a vote Friday, after retiring Tennessee Sen. Lamar Alexander announced that he would join the vast majority to oppose the introduction of any new evidence in the trial.
Ahead of the procedural vote, Warren reiterated the point of her question in a series of tweets Friday morning, noting that public faith in American institutions is already at an all-time low. She said that the expected vote against new evidence “doesn’t help.”
“Americans deserve to know that the President is using the power of his/her office to work in the nation’s interest, not his own personal interest,” Warren tweeted. “And they deserve a Senate with the political courage to stand up to a President that has abused his power & corrupted our government.”
The whole impeachment is a sham. That's why Trump's bill ratings have gone even higher since this began.
Actually, the American people have long considered Congress as a whole to be the dregs of the dregs, unable to accomplish much of anything beneficial for our general populace.

Now Schiff and dems want him to be the star witness despite having described the call in glowing terms before the "book". When a LIAR hooks up with a LIAR you get something the "pastor" will support

I agree again with JFD. An example:
Kelly Calls Trial Without Witnesses Is Only Half Done
Former White House Chief of Staff John Kelly again weighed in on the impeachment proceedings, telling NJ Advance Media that a trial without witnesses should be considered “half a trial.”
Said Kelly: “In my view, they kind of leave themselves open to a lot of criticism. It seems it was half a trial.”
Only half a trial and only half an exoneration.

Widespread condemnation
President Trump’s “peace plan” has been met with strong opposition from experts, presidential candidates, lawmakers and the pro-Israel, pro-peace community. It’s been called a “trojan horse,” the “giveaway of the century,” a “con,” a “sham,” “absurd,” and a “rubber stamp for annexation.”
At J Street, we of the PRO ISRAEL, PRO PALESTINIAN coalition believe it’s vitally important to cut through the administration’s rhetoric surrounding this plan and to expose it for what it is:
a smokescreen for annexation.
This is critical if we are to prevent President Trump, Ambassador Friedman and Prime Minister Netanyahu from establishing a new baseline for US policy, legitimizing annexation, imperiling Israel’s security and democracy and condemning Palestinians to permanent occupation and statelessness.
We’ve created a resource page rounding up top analysis of the plan, as well as statements of condemnation from presidential candidates, members of Congress, Jewish organizations, Israeli security experts and prominent Palestinians.
We hope you’ll share this page to help debunk the administration's Orwellian claims. The more opposition we can muster, the better the chance we have of mitigating the damage of this annexation plan and defending the prospects for successful diplomacy once Trump is voted out of office.
On that note, if you haven’t already, please take a moment now to send a message to your Rep. asking him or her to sign on to a congressional letter condemning the plan.
Together, we can push back on this dangerous proposal and lay the groundwork for Congress and the next administration to undo the terrible damage wrought by Trump and Friedman and put us back on a pathway to peace.

Some Republicans Finally Concede Trump Did It AND THUS LIED ABOUT DOING IT
January 31, 2020 at 3:42 pm EST
“As the Senate marched toward the final phase of President Trump’s impeachment trial, a handful of Republicans coalesced around a common position:
Mr. Trump did what he was accused of — pressuring Ukraine to investigate his political rival — but should not be removed for it,” the New York Times reports.
“Mr. Trump has repeatedly INSISTED that he did nothing wrong with regard to Ukraine, calling his telephone call with the country’s president ‘perfect’ and INSISTING that the impeachment inquiry was a ‘hoax.'
“But even as they were poised to acquit him, several Republican senators were rejecting that assertion, saying his actions were wrong and inappropriate — just not grounds for the Senate to oust him.”

"e United States is expected to continue to be a net exporter of energy through 2050 as energy consumption grows at a slower rate than energy production, according to new projections from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA). The EIA released Wednesday (Jan. 29) its Annual Energy Outlook 2020, showing its baseline, or reference case, projections.
“We see renewables as the fastest-growing source of electricity generation through 2050 as cost declines make them economically competitive beyond the expiration of existing federal and state policy supports,” said EIA Administrator Linda Capuano. “With continued technologically enabled growth in domestic oil and natural gas production, we see the United States remaining a net exporter of energy for some time.”

Senate Impeachment Sham Trial Will End on Wednesday
Mitch McConnell and Chuck Schumer have agreed to a proposal that would wrap up the Senate's impeachment sham trial on Wednesday.
Well Reverend Hypocrite!
Glad you agree this entire impeachment fiasco has been a complete sham! The House never should have even considered such a ridiculous impeachment.
No, the Senate trial part of it was the sham, the first Senate impeachment trial ever with no witnesses, no documents.
"To not allow a witness, a document - no witnesses, no documents - in an impeachment trial is a perfidy. America will remember this day, unfortunately, where the Senate did not live up to its responsibilities, where the Senate turned away from truth and went along with a sham trial.
“If the President is acquitted with no witnesses, no documents, the acquittal will have no value because Americans will know that this trial was not a real trial. It had no witnesses, no documents. It is a tragedy on a very large scale.”
--Chuck Schumer
President Trump’s former chief of staff John Kelly criticized the Senate’s decision not to call any additional witnesses in the impeachment trial, calling it “a job only half done.”
“In my view, they kind of leave themselves open to a lot of criticism,” Kelly, 69, said in an interview with NJ Advance Media.
“It seems it was half a trial,” he added.
The retired Marine Corps general cited polling to back his stance. A Quinnipiac University poll released this week found three-quarters of U.S. voters supported calling witnesses.
“If I was advising the United States Senate, I would say, 'If you don’t respond to 75% of the American voters and have witnesses, it’s a job only half done,” he said. “You open yourself up forever as a Senate that shirks its responsibilities.”
Kelly said earlier this week he believed former national security adviser John Bolton’s allegations that Trump withheld security aid to Ukraine to pressure the country into investigating 2020 Democratic candidate Joe Biden.
Bolton, 71, made the allegations in his forthcoming book, which the White House asserted contains classified information. Kelly said Bolton was “a copious note-taker” and “an honest guy and an honorable guy.”
Kelly was Trump’s chief of staff from July 2017 to January 2019. His time in the White House overlapped with Bolton’s for about nine months.
