So anyone else think they are trying to set up a Filibuster? Look at the language. "Unanswered questions" was the same excuse the Democrats used against Estrada. So two questions. Will they Filibuster? Do they have the votes to block the Constitutional option? I think it would be a complete disaster but I am a firm believer in NEVER underestimating the stupidity of Democrat Leaders.

No, I do NOT think there will be a filibuster. I think they will consider it, but not have the votes to pull it off. All this bluster is for their crazy constituents, who will threaten their funding regardless. They lost. There will be a lot of TALK about a filibuster, but in the end, Alito wins. Dems just want to make it ugly.

I think the dems would be STOOPID to filibuster...so they are probably thinking about doing just that....
BTW...I was just watching Hairball...and the weapons inspector David Kay was on...talking about Iran..
Chrissy asked him if Cheney has an "itchy trigger finger"...and David Kay said.."I don't know about an itchy trigger finger..but he as AN ITCHY TONGUE"...
WTF was that supposed to mean???

My question is about the filibuster. If they do it, must they actually come to the floor and yammer 24/7?
I ask because I heard it was just a gambit.
