I believe the deal is that they would vote for cloture on those three.

Not "the same as," but rather "precisely that."

So, then, this amounted to nothing. Just a sideshow.

TOUCHDOWN!

When you wash it all and hang it up to dry, nothing really changes except three judges get confirmed. Then we dance again.

My guess, the dims' hope is a judge comes up in the rotation that they can find a better attack for.

But the damage is that it is now going to get harder to say judges are too conservative, now that they let Owens and Brown through. The dems are still teetering on the edge.
