How long do you think it will be before we find out what happens in this little compromise meeting that is going on?

Do you think there will be a final decision re: the Byrd Option by the weekend?

Hatch just called the Dems liars for not stating the Truth about the AG's feelings for Owens.

Hatch is a great speaker, keep going Senator!

Rats! I've got a $50 bet with FReeper for an up or down vote on at least 2 appellate court nominees before 6/13/2005. :-(

Good for you they have to hear that stuff because it is the opposite of what they hear in DC. It doesnt do any good for me to speak with my Senators since they are both such lefties, but I hope more people like you speak for all of us in the darkness of blue states.

And now we have the Dems ignoring it. How ironic. It just goes to prove that they will literally sell their souls to get power back.

Just imagine what Barbars's L.L. Bean "Virtual Model" would look like.

I still don't understand what the "deal" would be - but it sounds like what it would mean is that this group of moderate Ds and Rs would agree to scuttle some of the nominees - by agreeing not to vote for them.

In other words, all nominees would go to a floor vote - where this group of senators would have agreed in advance whom to approve, and whom to reject. That would involve, for example, a group of Rs not voting for Janice Rogers Brown or Owens. I can't see this "deal" playing out any other way if it happens.
