Lot's of knee jerks out on display tonight. So far, no one seems to realize that it is quite possible that Pres. Bush will get most, if not all, of his nominees and good amount of legislation passed in the 109th Congress.

All this deal amounts to is a small fig leaf for the 14 so called "moderates" to avoid having to vote on the constitutional option.

They may have thought they won tonight, but they'll lose in the long run. Just about the only thing they won is more time till their day of reckoning.

As we progress forward with more and more judicial nominees, the gang of 14 will be forced to explain what they mean by "extreme circumstances" -- believe me before it's over, they'll make pretzels look straight in comparison to their "logic."

Worse than pretzel logic doesn't go over very well in red states -- the very color of the states that a good number of the 7 Dem "moderates" are from.

Finally, the Senate will be back in business and I bet we'll pass Bolton and the Energy Bill before long.
