This should be all out war. The Senate wants to deny these nominees an up or down vote, then shut down the entire legislative process with the veto pen. No good legislation is going to come out of there now anyhow.

How many networks would give Conservatives any air time?

Nah, during the time it takes the Dems and a few RINOs help Bush get shamnesty passed, the veto pen will remain locked in a cabinet.

I expect a do-nothing congress that increases the polarization in the country...

Exactly.

But the administration hadn't had the guts to confront the Libs when they had Republican majorities in COngress.
There is no chance they will do it now.

My guess is they were ASKED to withdraw.

The repubs had the chance to change things and they caved to the dems. They could have voted in a change in the voting by only needing 51 votes and not 60. But .. Frist had no stomach for the fight so we did nothing.

What difference is it now .. we still can do "nothing".
