Well, hopefully while the DEMs are bogged down in this act of futility, they cannot be doing damage somewhere else!

Kerry has perfect timing considering the word is out that there are 60 votes to confirm. He is so transparent. He is doing it for facetime, press, and to pacify the loonies.
lmao

Why the heck would you vote for cloture and legitimize the illegitimate practice of judicial fillibusters?????!!!!!
Nuclear is the only way and that's 51 votes NOT 60!!!!
Not to yell at you or anything, but dammit, it seems like everyone's forgotten that today.

You think being shown to be a blowhard and ineffective (yet again) is a "positive" for Kerry amoung non-DU voters?

Well, three Dems have already come out in favor of Alito. Assuming all the Republicans hold, we're just two votes from ebing able to shut down a filibuster without invoking the "nuclear option."

How about Gore/Mrs Clinton or Kerry/Clinton... or better yet Clinton/Gore and they could recycle those bumper stickers...
