I never recall a compromise being necessary for Clinton or any other Democrat to get a vote on Judges.

Wait a minute! Clinton is the only Democratic president I can remember lol. Some of you old timers may have to enlighten me.

No matter what, this stinks!

In another eight minutes, I'll learn whether I'll ever give another dime to the Republican Party

My dime ran out after the Arlen Spector debacle.

Always remember, they owe their first allegiance to themselves, their reelection, and the bureaucracy.

What their constituents want is way down the list

So we find out who caved.

The conservatives have nothing to gain with a compromise. The consevatives had the votes...why compromise? Compromise always means conservatives give in.

Let's see if we break that record.

If the GOP doesn't get a vote on all nominees by the President, then no more $$$ from me...

Ben Nelson called it---and he said that he didn't need Reid's permission for a deal---

I wonder if the Reps needed permission---if not, then this most likely is NOT what Frist wanted..DAMN

Prediction: All smiles and backslapping tonight; Owen gets approved; Dems then filibuster the next nominee as an "extraordinary" situation; Republicans push the button.
