Bush didn't cave. The ball is in Dasshole's court. If he doesn't give the 25 judicial nominees an up-or-down vote, that's Dasshole's fault, not Bush's. Dasshole wanted to move to other votes, and Bush merely told Tommy "Not until I've got up-or-down votes on this long backlog of judges". Bush is clearly in control. There's no caving in on Bush's part. Neal Boortz is a moron.
we all know how Daschle will respond. I will be surprised to see 25 judges confirmed.
