I just called Nelson's office and a staffer told me that Senator Nelson is NOT supporting the filibuster.

It's one thing for his office to say, "he is NOT supporting the filibuster." Technically, there is NO filibuster UNLESS the Republicans invoke cloture. So Senator Nelson is saying he is supporting something that is not happening. We need to get him to pubically say he supports Estrada's confirmation. If we can get him to say that, I think this is over.

Did you call Nelson of Nebraska or Nelson of Florida? Nelson of Nebraska has already come out in favor of Estrada.
