We shall see, but do you see the value of the agreement now?
The agreement fractured the Republicans in the Senate, raising the possibility of the loss of the Majority Leader position and all the Senate Committtee chairmanships. The Democrats should have blinked, they should have had to.If in fact Bush can't get a good justice confirmed, after he has proven that he favors judges who can quote Hayek, it will trace back to the RINOs in the Senate, and McCain and the six dwarfs are the head of that snake. If that happens Lindsey Graham will deserve a primary challenge for the Republican nomination for Senator from South Carolina - and defeat for reelection if he manages to win renomination. It just won't matter to me if a Democrat takes the seat; at least Carolinians will probably get to vote on a decent candidate in '12.
The score is currently:
1. Judges confirmed: Brown, Griffin, Griffith, McKeague, Owens, Pryor
2. Judges still being blocked: Saad who may not have majority support, Boyle
3. UN Nomination still filibustered Bolton
As far as you hyperbole about fracturing the GOP of loss of majority, what planet do you live on?
