"The Senate doesn't have the votes. The issue is DOA."

You are absolutely right and 2 of the worst RINOs (McPain and Spectator) have already made it public they will NOT vote for it.

Cannot believe that Frist did NOT know (thus Pres as well) that they could not come up with enough votes.

Therefore, simply reinforces my (and many others') view that this was simply a ploy and a weak attempt to galvanize base and perhaps, get some to take our eye off ball re: ILLEGAL IMIGRATION.

I am of the same opinion. It was an attempt at the ole shellgame -- try to change the debate and get the base support back. It failed.

No..No....haven't you read any of the DU'ers take on this? According to the nuts over there....This is all just a ploy to keep our focus off the real issues of how we murder innocent Iraqi's.
