This has absolutely nothing to do with RINO Republicans. This has to do with the fact that Demonrats are not even allowing it out of committee to allow a full vote. Even if what you say is true, which is not, RINO's have nothing to do with what is taking place right now. Furthermore the judeges Bush has put up have already been said they would get the nomination if they ever made it to the floor.
This has EVERYTHING to do with republicrats and their lack of a backbone. Frist is no leader he is another yes man shrill. I have lost all faith in ANY republicrat. they are a part of the system. The system of big spenders and no constitutional guidance. Then again after watching this you have to ask why do we have a constitution?
Nope, the Rinos are having an impact behind the scenes and apparently Frist has gotten the message. (Probably why he is disheartened and talking of not running for another term.)
See this link to article from yesterday on FR by ROBERT NOVAK and Townhall. Scroll to 2nd last paragraph.
Gop Judges
All this refocusing is intended to set the scene for a bitter battle in next year's session of Congress. At that time, an effort may be made to rule out of order a filibuster against judicial nominations -- the "so-called" nuclear solution. This would require only 51 votes, but Frist does not even have that many today because of reluctance to tamper with the traditions of the Senate.
