OK, folks..let's se what going to happen today as we move closer to the showdown in the Senate. Live, at 1 PM EST on C-span 2, "Searchlight" Reid is holding a presser to discuss judicial nomination. The Senate then convenes at 2PM, and as Majority Leader, Frist will make the opening statement. Then Reid will speak. Frist as pissed at Reid last week..for announcing a possible compromise on the Senate floor without FIRST telling him of it..and Frist has yet to speak about Reid's comments about FBI files. Should be fireworks..
almost...
It was more like 60 yard pass out of bounds after time had expired...
Please explain... right now, I "think" I agree...lol.
Well if the state Republican party would ever get smart enough to dump McCain I might start donating to it again... but I've sorta lost hope. Heck the Dem party can't even field candidates against him, if they can't, why would the Republicans?
Who cares if Casey is pro life if he will vote with Harry Reid on the nuclear option and prevent pro life judges from being confirmed.
Every dem senator that votes against cloture for pro life judges can't say they are pro life.
That bad, huh?
The correct term is "Traitor Reid."
Hey, hey, HEY! Careful there.
Of course, I'm not admitting to anything.
Your post 198, interesting theory.
One possible problem scenario..In order to "preserve" the filabuster for the SC nominees..enough Dems will vote to invoke cloture on these 7 so that Frist will NOT have to ask for a vote on the rules change..If that does happen, it's a big win for the GOP, nd IMHO, Bush should immediately re-nominate Estrada
We are winning.
Take no prisoners.
I don't agree, Howlin. Powell believes in loyalty to the person he works for. If he cannot be loyal, he resigns, as he resigned his position as Joint Chiefs Chairman when Clinton became president.
Powell is trusted friend to the Bush family and like a son to Ronald Reagan.
The state party is too stupid to even keep me as a Precinct Committeeman, so yeah. This source of $$ has already dried up.
Not just a theory anymore; he's been badmouthing Bolton and didn't have the balls to say whether he should be the nominee except behind closed doors.
Why would democrat Rendell appoint a republican to fill Spector's senate seat? (sorry, if I'm dense on this). Our best Georgia senator, republican Coverdale died in office, and Demo governor appointed democrat Zell Miller to fill the seat. (We sure lucked out, didn't we?)
I will go to my grave furious about Estrada!
You can't really expect better from the Libertines but the Constitution Party voters commit treason every time they vote.
If my memory is correct, Zell was one of the ones who first pushed the idea that you don't need 60 for judges. That along with his soldier speech at the Convention is his legacy IMHO.
HA! .. Stop by the PA message Boards some time
A few there seem to think Casey is a better choice then Santorum .. they also seem to think Rick a RINO that is pro-choice
