For those of you interested roll calling voting, I am now maintaining a
realtime109th
Congress voting database at

http://adric.sscnet.ucla.edu/rollcall/

At the moment, only the Senate data are available.  Vote data (in the
usual Poole and Rosenthal
format) can be downloaded as well as descriptions of each vote.   This
is a developing project,
suggestions and comments are welcome.
