UPDATE: Jeff sent along a thank you note, and pointed me to Kelly’s floor speech on this – posted up after the jump
==========================================
A note sent to a staff member for Senator Kelly Ayotte:
Re: Your boss…
…did good today.
One of the TEA Party principles is to stop the wanton spending and to get the fiscal house in order. That requires stalwart folks with titanium spines to stand up and say "NO!"
Kelly Ayotte was characterized during the election cycle as the Establishment candidate.
Charlie Bass was the candidate that conservatives held their noses and voted for, knowing full well what was to come.
Frank Guinta was the TEA Party candidate.Gee, guess who had the stones to stand up and say "NO!" to further indebting our children and grandchildren due to Congress’s overspending?
Not the self-described Progressive Republican.
And not the TEA Party candidate.
But the Establishment candidate did.She continues to exceed my expectations and most of TEA Party folks I talk to agree with that sentiment. Please extend our thanks to Kelly.

Lest I forget – Of COURSE, liberal Democrat Senator Jeanne Shaheen voted to allow Government to spend more.
