Relax..Bennett is launching a trial balloon..to let the Dems know the GOP is serious..it's a game of chicken now, who blinks FRist, er, first..

Please don't write Frist as "FRist". He can't understand the values of us, old and young proud members of FR.

They should not call this the "nuclear option."

I believe it should be called the "Constitutional Option"

Seems to me they launched this same balloon about 2 yrs. ago and look where it has gotten them. It makes for an excellent cause come election time (we need 60 Republicans in the senate,) but it certainly doesn't seem to scare the Democrats. If they do not do anything now when they probably (?) have 51 votes, they are never EVER going to do anything except play us with this as an election issue. I think they have used it for the last time effectively and it will not work again in '06, and in fact, will have the opposite effect.
