The Republicans have agreed not to ban the fillibuster -- as long the Democrats don't use it."

And the reality is the Republicans cannot ban the fillibuster UNLESS the rats use it. This is a face saving surrender which based on the reactions of a lot of smart conservatives is very well done.

The reality is that the seven Senators are weasels who have so many weasel words in their agreement that nobody can trust them -- Frist, Reid, or anyone else. Proof of this is that the more Graham tries to explain what he is doing, the less coherent he becomes.

All we have for now is three nominees in, two likely out and tons of smoke.
