I'm glad that these 3 are confirmed. However, we now have the issue of the 2 who were agreed to be denied. I'm unsure of the exact language of the deal. Does it guarantee that the rino 7 will vote against these 2 or simply that the dino 7 are allowed to filibuster them?
Also, in the future the deal calls for a return to status quo....is that correct? Everyone is now free to filibuster, fight, nuke, whatever?
The language says they will be fillibustered, but I just made a bet that Saad will get confirmed. Truthfully I'm not confident I will win, but before the agreement 7 of 7 judges were not confirmed. Now 5 are. I have faith that Saad will get his vote. IMO the nuclear option would have given cover for the rats and it is likely many of the 5 confirmed judges would have lost the vote. rats would have been so angry that RINOs would not have confirmed Pryor or Brown.
On March 21st I posted this "The real pay off is going to be the judges who will have a long term impact. The rats are obstructing some judges but I'm starting to think we will get them confirmed without using a nuclear option, but if not the obstructions will help us elect more Republicans in 06( hopefully enough to get 60 Senate seats) but we are already confirming some great judges to replace rat judges. And it's happening on state levels too. Having majorities in state legislatures and Governor seats is helping elect Republican judges. The problem is it takes time."

That's the way I read it too.
