Heard this "guessed about" on Rush today. The idea was that the Democrats didn't really want to give the show away now but preferred to save their objection time for the Supreme Court nominees.

Looks like the "guess" was absolutely correct.

The Dems have lost their touch ~ took them a couple of months to realize they were going to hand all the power to the Republicans over relatively minor appointments.

Must be all the hard narcotics and drinking they've been into.

I'm not sure this is over. Senator Frist spoke on the floor of the Senate and repeated his demand of an up or down vote. Clearly the Dems plan to let Owens gain cloture tomorrow. Frist should bring up Saud next and force their hand. I have contributed heavily to the Republican party, enough to be invited to DC to meet the President. I have informed the GOP my wallet is closed until this is resolved in our favor!
