"But to me it doesn't even seem like a deal the Dems would make. The high court for baby stem cell research?"

It wasn't the Dems who made the deal (think: 7 RINOs).

You're just tryin ta make me despise them 7 RINO's more than I already do! Why would Frist be motivated to go along with such a deal? What's really in it for him? None of 'em are into selfless giving of themselves for the good all and everybody knows it!!!

I can't believe those Senators are so afraid of a constitutional confrontation that they'd give the Liberal/Leftists something like Stem Cell Research which they were gaining ground toward anyway, in exchange for less hasseling over Supreme Court Nominees. I guess I'm too stupid to see the benefit to the Dems, unless they are demoralized over the unions lack of unity...

It just doesn't add up to my considerate conservative mind. I can't figure what the 7 RINO's would be winning with this that's really going to help with the constitutional option, or anything else, other than they just want SCR and the devil take the hindmost!!! What am I missing, oh great sage of political scenarios???
