Graham just said that he and Dewine would have voted FOR the filibuster.


That equals 50 plus we have the tie-breaker.

And you choose to believe "Dem sources"?

Many here on various threads have chosen to take the word of Reid, Durbin, the WaPo, etc over the word of Frist, Graham, DeWine, etc.

OH I am so going to help whoever runs against DeWhiner!

His son Pat is running to fill Rob Portman's vacant House seat (in my district). I hope he has a campaign rally so we can all Freep it. Incidentally, that district is within a few miles of Tony Snow's High School in Cincinnati. Maybe he would show up for the Freep!

...the Republican Senators may just as well all go home now.

They've been savaged by the 'Ball-cutter Seven'!

Graham just let the rats know they don't have the votes to filibuster others.

Graham and DeWine would vote for the nuclear option. Frist has 50+ Senators for the nuclear option.

Graham will vote for Owen. So. We are exactly where we were yesterday, but with considerably better illumination.

McCain did a lot of things that are wrong, but he didn't sit out Vietnam in that cell. Indeed, nearly everything that he did wrong can arguably be traced back to that cell.

Indeed. If he didn't buy...it doesn't fly.
Graham just said manufatured.

What is he saying? Is he possessed?

Graham scum.

Yes, the "scum" is now defending the judicial nominees that he noted will soon be judges from the unfair smearing they've been subjected to.

Frist is NOT an idiot, and if this is your thinking you will not like this thread!

I agree. The Supreme Court Nominees are the big prize. Frist is sticking to his guns. They are trying to get this done without poisining the political waters for the remainder of the Bush presidency. I have a sense Frist is going to make people draw lines go opn record with the Owen cloture vote. The "deal" may have been a carrot to draw the rats out to see what they were willing to offer. Needless to say, both sides got a lot of battle info.

Please give me a hand! I know this has probably been answered in this 10 million post thread, but...
WHY IS EVERYBODY TALKING AS IF THE OTHER 2 JUSTICES HAVE BEEN THROWN OVERBOARD??? Is it just assumed that these 2, who are LESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! controversial than the others will not be brought up???? If so, why is that assumed. Please help my dizzy mind.

There is only one hour for Repulicans... how is time allocated? Can't the Republican leaders choose other Senators to speak rather than let Graham eat up the time?
