Frist doesn't like stem cell research. He *sold* his position on that issue in exchange for getting 4 Supreme Court Justice appointments (O'Conner, Rehnquist, Stevens, and Ginsberg's replacement) confirmed in the Senate.

Politics, like making sausage, is not a pretty business.

Well that's the "cover story/rumor" we're all "hearing" that is being spread amongst the base. But to me it doesn't even seem like a deal the Dems would make. The high court for baby stem cell research?

It's important to them, but not enough to lose the SCOTUS, me thinks.

I can't tell you how much I hope that is real.
