If any Republican senators take Reid's bait and try to throw overboard ANY of President Bush's nominees they should feel the full wrath of the Republican base. They should be hit by a firestorm that they will not soon forget.

Agreed. Frist should force the vote, and if we lose, at least we'll know who's not with us.

We can take it from there- and there can always be another vote.

Brit Hume reported that the alleged deal would have had all the nominees EXCEPT PRISCILLA OWEN(guess because she's from Bush's Texas?) getting a vote, then the Dems would say no more filibusters through 2006 "except in extreme circumstances". To hear that Republicans were spending time even talking about such a thing made my blood boil.
