It's in the rules that the dems can delay a nomination for a week.
BFD, IMO, Gonzales, Rice(etc.etc.) will be confirmed.
This just gives the Dummies(the base of the democrat party)and mainstream media a reason to think they're relavant somehow.

Gonzales is a limp grey watered down "conservative" who doesn't really trust the people with guns that might kill potential opressors. A Bob Dole Republican. And we all know how that story ends.
Rice is the Real Deal.
Giving comfort to the terrorists who are targeting our heroes and the innocent Iraqis.
