If Bush nominates a real conservative this time the Dems are really going to feel the heat from their wacko base to filibuster.

And McCain, (Might run for Pres.) DeWine, Graham, Warner etc. will feel the heat from their constituents to use the nuke option.

And the filibuster will hold (with no nuclear option possible) if the Gang of 14 moderates agree that the nominee triggers the "extraordinary circumstances" clause of their "agreement".

If they're going to try a filibuster, I hope the president nominates someone who will do MAXIMUM damage to them for it.

We can only hope! That is exactly what I am after. It is high time we took these DimWits to the mat on this filibuster nonsense! I want to pin their shoulders to the floor so they can never do this again. It's time the Pubbies stood up and showed the American people they are not a bunch of pussies!  McCain and his traitors to the party need to be taught a lesson too as far as I'm concerned. What the Rinos did last time is unforgivable. I say kick 'em out of the party if they try this compromise BS again! We control the majority damn it! Why in the hell aren't our elected officials acting like it?!
 
I don't understand what W was thinking when he nominated Meirs. We control the House and the Senate. Why in the world are we pussyfooting around? I say let's cram it right down their throats! The DemonRats sure as hell would. If our Reps and Senators haven't noticed the DimWits sure as hell don't play by the Marquis of Queensbury Rules, and it is about time we give them some of their own medicine! I have a feeling the DemonRats are gonna be very, very sorry they didn't give Meirs a pass, they are sure as hell not going to like the next nominee! Hopefully W will take the gloves off after the Senate put his personal lawyer and friend through the wringer. I know if someone shows that kind of disrespect to one of my friends, I come out swinging!
