(If you have Real-Audio capability, you can listen to the hearings at
www.hotwired.com/wiredside).
Basically he expressed his disappointment at the committee for having a 
biased view and having minds that were already made up regarding the issue,
and he said he was beginning to lean towards the bill, but the attitude of
the committee just might make him vote against it.  
He's my senator too and believe me he got some feedback! =)
