"Nominees should be filibustered only under extraordinary circumstances"

I'm sure the Dems will claim extraordinary circumstances to be defined as the nomination of any "conservative Republican" .




When they have agree to let the three they have been smearing as most extreme (Brown, Owens & Pryor) get a vote.....in the future how can they claim another nominee is too extreme?

I would like to believe that you are correct, but I am of the opinion that the Dims will claim anything and count on the MSM to carry their water for them.

Lets not panic here. My understanding is that we definitely get cloture on 3. The other two there is no commitment either way. RINOs agree not to vote for Nuke option I assume as long as the Rats do not filibuster other than psychotic nominees. We MAY be able to live with this. Now that PITA McCain has done his moderate thing he now has to move back to the right and support the Pubs in the next showdown.
