Frist lost all credibility and ability to lead with his stupid doctor charade in the Terry Schiavo fiasco across the state in St. Pete/Clearwater area. He devined a diagnosis of her brain activity from newspaper reports and an ideological crystal ball on the Senate floor as he pandered to the madding crowd down on the street shouting about something about which they knew nothing.

Schiavo had nothing to do with it. The Senate was like a pack of wild dogs with their own agendas instead of being united. Frist was the worst choice they could have come up with. He stepped over quite a few Senators with more seniority to become leader.
