Let em try it.

After listening to the folks at CPAC, I can promise you, the Republicans are going to play hardball if they do.

Spot on....I saw the hearing on C-span....Hatch was most excellent. The Pubbies didn't respond to the rants of Leaky and Chuckie....they just voted....the Dems are in a quandry..they've demonized Pickering..vowed to get him...OTOH..Estrada could serve on the SC for 40 years....so you'd think he's the one they want to stop...maybe that's why the WH didn't send Pickering up first....because the Dems would pass him....THEN gang up on Estrada...and they could say they weren't opposed to all of Bush's judges..
