"Frist will call a vote if the Democrats obstruct no matter what the RINO's do, of that I have no doubt." If Warner, McStain, Graham, and the spineless Republican moderates have their way, Frist wouldn't dare pull a trigger on a weapon that would falter. This is a very dangerous time for the Republicans what with so many suicidal moderate Pubbies warming seats in the Senate.
Why wouldn't he dare?
Frist has nothing to lose in calling for a vote. The only ones that stand to lose are those that vote no. The RINO's will be targeted with the fury of the conservative base that elects them. The Red state Dems will have that vote recorded against them in their next campaigns.
The rest of the Republicans will escape our ire for doing what they were able. their careers will be safe.
