There should be no more oral arguments, you have made your case. And the opposition has made theirs. No more minds are going to be changed. It is all on the record.

I really wish this infighting would stop. I participate and try to bring levity but these arguments seem very hostile at times.

Things will now continue to play out over the coming weeks and months. And we all want the GOP to prevail. We can all agree on that and that is actually the most imortant thing of all. Senseless internal bickering is counter-productive. Like a soap opera, these fights are addictive. But, they sap one's strength for really important tasks.

President Bush needs to win this battle over the Estrada confirmation. It is really important to our cause and his mission. Let's quit fighting about a stupid article and work on making this happen starting at 10a on Monday morning with faxes, phone calls, etc.

Plus, Iraq is about to be liberated. And this is a historic moment in the Gulf. Let's keep our eyes on the big picture.
