About That Longer Work Week …

Senate Maj. Leader Harry Reid has announced that the Senate will vote on the surge resolution this Saturday. But a quick look at Hotline’s table of WH candidate schedules indicates that at least six Senators were planning to be out of town that day:

Biden: Iowa
Clinton: Boston
Dodd: South Carolina
Obama: South Carolina and Richmond, VA
Brownback: Orlando, FL
McCain: Iowa

Sen. Chuck Hagel, who of course hasn’t announced his intentions yet, had no public events planned. So will any of the other six change plans? [MIKE MEMOLI]
