They can't try to pass it as long as a few Repubs continue filabustering it, and they can't get past the filabuster without 60 votes, here they've only gotten 39!

The filibustered bill was the original McCain-Kennedy bill, opposed by Frist.

The new compromised bill is supported by both Frist and Reid.

The chances of filibuster for the most recent compromised bill are nil

Well, I didn't see John Cornyn or Jon Kyl up on stage with the McKennedy supporters. Did you?

As far as I'm concerned the entire capitol needs to be cleaned of these career cockroaches. With the exception of Tancredo, Sessions, and Sessenbrenner, most the rest can go to hell. They just gave us the middle finger and will continue to do so if we vote for them. I intend to find out how this is being voted on. Frist thinks he he slick but I'm not falling for this GOOD COP, BAD COP routine. I want to see them out next election. They just sold this country to the ILLEGALS.
