Good morning, fellow political junkies. I'm starting the thread early, because I'll be out and about for much of the morning. Follow along, and comment here, as usual..

Oh, the message is getting out - Focus on the Family has done a great job with their ads on the filibuster. And Salazar has started out with some stumbles, like calling Jim Dobson names. But with a Senator you have to wait six years to try to get them out.

And young, too.

Yup :)

Obama stayed on the plantation and voted no.

What's the over/under on the cloture vote? ayone remember what Owen got?

[Howlin]

So we had the votes?

"All three nominees seem like excellent eggs."

And young, too. Plenty of time to serve on the bench.

Hillary Clinton have already cooked her goose with at least 60% of the voters and she cannot do anything to fix it.

Brown is confirmed. This is the cloture vote on Pryor.

[You Dirty Rats]

The minority-runs-the-show party is OVER for the Demodogs.

I think we'll get cloture for the two Michigan nominees also, but Myers and Saad are likely going to miss out. I'd rather see votes for them, too, but if they are the only two missed then we can live with that. Hopefully the President will find equally good nominees to replace Saad and Myers.

[Bahbah]

Yes, Brown is in.

[deport]

This is better than sex!

Maybe we have the answer........ Try parallel for a change.

[toomanygrasshoppers]

[Howlin]

Well, one would wonder why we didn't do this MONTHS ago, wouldn't one?
