And with a STRONG Majority Leader ( which Frist never has been and never shall be ),only McQueeg and maybe two or three others would have broken ranks. And this lunacy would never have seen the light of day.
Frist stinks and that's that.

Not since the agreement clearly gives them that right. They can decide each of them if it is a misuse of the Filibuster.
Once they decide they are cleared to go Nuclear if a filibuster occurs.

Name a strong leader. Inhofe? And how would he have controlled McCain?
Frist did his best. He had 48 votes.
The democrats stuck together.
Graham defied his state and it was payback time for SC primary 2000.
DeWine, Warner, and Graham might pay a price. The other three are home free.
McCain isn't up for reelection again until 2010.
