Feingold is scared. He just said he was worried that "Frist will not abide by the agreement" and deploy the Nuke.Such things happen when you bring Olds Media spin to a New Media fight.

Ah, Slimeroad; that paragon of Senate virtue. Just ignore that, among other flip-flops, he wanted to get rid of the filibuster entirely in 1995.

Feingold is crying so much because he skinned his knee. It happened when he tripped over Chuck Schumer's nose, which grew to 16 feet in length when he claimed to support judges who interpret the law as intended by the Founding Fathers, and to oppose judicial activism.

As I said earlier. This will be the first test as to whether or not they are returning to the 'old' Senate ways or not.
Remember, all though there was harsh rhetoric on both sides, Scalia and Ginsberg got near unanimous support.

Cheney delivers his own filibutter, the Nuclear Suppository. A non-partisan approach to impasse.

[Schumer] claimed to support judges who interpret the law as intended by the Founding Fathers, and to oppose judicial activism. Does this mean that our harping on those very things is showing up in their polls to be working ?
