I think we should go for the recess appointments IF it would carry their appointments past the November 2004 elections, because I suspect we're going to pick up a bunch of seats then. Anyone know when such appointments would actually end?

PRECISELY!!! That's why there's the 'last resort' discussion going on as this as an option. If the Dims scream, they've done it numerous times in the past. Appointments end in the next election cycle.
