Yeah, but weren't those the three that were most likely to be fillibustered?

Yes only 3 and the deal is based on TRUST. God help us.

Here's why it's a bad deal.

Frist was right to make the fight over female judges. The strategy was to force the vote for Owen or Brown, who would be so much harder for the MSM to demonize. Now the Byrd option will be fought over a white male, which the dems think they have a better chance of defeating.

Frist's carefully chosen high ground has been pulled out from under him.

It's a disgrace.

Three will definitely get the up or down vote. No committment on the others. They will go forward, and if the dems try to filibuster, we've retained our right to change the rules.
