Reid says that they have 7 speakers scheduled this afternoon, and he hopes THEY SHOW UP!

What about tomorrow Harry, any speakers?

Reid objects, at this point, to a UC agreement setting the vote for Monday.

Reid says there may be an agreement later today. Better, says Reid, that Frist deal with Reid directly, rather than through Specter. Specter is pressing for an idea about when the DEMs will be ready to vote.

Plenty of time to file a cloture motion - that can come tomorrow, if necessary. The point is "debate or vote" -- ahhh, Specter admits that the only way he can enforce that is via cloture.

LOL - good joke by Specter.
