Frist says he wasn't a party to the agreement.
What can Frist can do, if these 14 senators stick together ?

He should have pushed for a vote and exercised the constitutional option long ago, before the Squishy Middle Caucus formed their cabal and signed their agreement, for starters.

We should have had a showdown.

Why can't Frist simply demand "real" filibusters? Apparently the filibuster rule now does not address the requirement of "real" filibusters. Real filibusters would soon bore the Democrats and the liberal Republicans into slipping out of the chamber.
