I believe both Lawrence Tribe and Fred Barnes both meant this is a tsunami/nightmare for the democrats because of the timing. We're at war, people won't want obstructionism in something this historical, this important, and after the so recent fight over judges, the democrats won't get away with more of the same.

Another interesting battle heating up....Between Kennedy's far left and McCain's Gang 0f 14. McCain was just on FOX and said there won't be a filibuster. He said, "the president will nominate a conservative, and will get an up or down vote". Sounded like a guarantee to me. And this was after the FOX anchor told him about Kennedy's inflammatory statement, almost a carbon copy of what some of the extreme far left fringe is saying about conservative picks.

That's good to hear. It sounds like the uproar after the gang of 7 did their number was heard loud and clear by McCain. Especially the defeat of DeWine's son. Conservatives are watching very closely and we are actually voting to punish defectors. McCain wants the nomination in 2008 and he cannot get it over concerted conservative opposition.
