Apparently, Sen. Collins now backs "binding legislation that would order Bush to restrict the mission of U.S. troops to counterterrorism, training Iraqis and protecting U.S. assets."
It depends on the details, but it sounds like this at least might be step in the right direction for the junior senator.
That said, President Bush has demonstrated repeatedly that he's working with a very expansive definition of "counterterrorism." So mark me down me as far from convinced that this counts as progress.
