Frist won't have the opportunity to exercise the nuclear option again. He needs momentum to do that, and the Democrats and RINOs seized the momentum from him.
Your right and the MSM will be even harder on Frist next time.

They know Frist's achilles heel. He cant run for Prez and appear obstructionist by nuking this 'great deal' of compromise. MSM will castigate him for screwing with these 'statesmen's ' deal.
This allows the Dems room to filibuster 4 of 7 nominees. What Frist forgets (while trying to appear mainstream) is he has no pissed off the base.
