Sounds like this isn't a compromise, but a truce, until the next big battle. Nothing's been resolved.

Here's why it's a bad deal.

Frist was right to make the fight over female judges. The strategy was to force the vote for Owen or Brown, who would be so much harder for the MSM to demonize. Now the Byrd option will be fought over a white male, which the dems think they have a better chance of defeating.

Frist's carefully chosen high ground has been pulled out from under him.

It's a disgrace.

Robert Byrd, there's a moderate for you, by the MSM's definition. What a worthless piece of trash.

Repubs who sold out: McCain, DeWine, Snowe, Warner, Chafee, Collins

There are seven on each side. The other must be Graham.

Sen. Byrd now making an ass of himself. They are above politics. NO YOU AREN'T!!!

"Frist is absolutely useless!"

This has NOTHING to do wih Frist.

It has everything to do with spineless RINOs.

"Extraordinary circumstances"

Un "F"ing real.............The repubs just lost control.

If these Republicans Chicken out and accept some democratic compromise I will be damned to vote again for a Republican for office.

When will the Republicans get the gonads to show that they control the Leadership of this country. If they can't take the heat they should get out of the kitchen.

No more funds to the RNC.

Saying the deal is based on trust sets the Pubbies up for getting the shaft whenever the democrats don't like a Constitution oriented nominee. Having Byrd spewing is all one need know to realize that the Pubbies trust the democrats well beyond their due.
