Spectre's trying to pin down Reid as to exactly WHEN the vote will take place, Harry's squirming and avoiding a direct answer. Seems Frist asked Spectre to do this, LOL. :-)

Specter asked him about speakers tomorrow

Reid says they have speakers

Specter is trying to get an idea of when they will finish

Reid says he has already spoken about it to Frist and won't give an answer

Specter is calling him on it

Specter is basically saying why continue the circle jerk where the Dems are all saying the same thing. They have a right to under the rules, but he's asking is it really necessary, something we all want to know.

Two things:

He must pay tribute and homage to the liberal groups.

They must make a show of force...to bleed the situation out as far as they can.
