They are ready for civil war, but they have no guns... oh, what a paradox.

No SUVs for "going up into the mountains" either. It's hard to be a revolutionary if you're only armed with a hybrid hatchback, a soccer ball, and Save the Whales pin.

Refuse to do ANYTHING until you get the up-or-down votes!


Oh Boy! I hope not! This is going to get really ugly!

I'm glad Sessions is backing Frist up that the constitutional option (a much better name than the nuclear option, btw) is still on the table.

Aside from being cute as a bug, Sessions is one great guy. No nonsense! For someone like me with 2 idiots in the Senate (Corzine, Louse-enberg) I can only dream.

That's crude, but you nailed it. Frist is secure in knowing that the failure of the Constitutional Option can't be laid at his feet by enough people to matter. There's still enough Pubbies that don't realize that the true measure of leadership is not standing up and getting knocked back down when you know you'll lose, but standing up and staying up when all the pundits have written you off.

McCain accomplished nothing, except to make things nastier!!!!

Sometimes nasty is good.

Frist, quickly and cleanly, wins the day. McCain is toast.
