Frist is probably not on for all of the following reasons:

1. He wasn't asked. (Producers determine the direction of the shows, and invite people they want to appear.)
2. The focus of the news is on Iraq, not Estrada.
3. Frist is in Tennessee, Condi and McCain and the rest are in New York or DC.

IIRC, the plan is to let the Dems continue their filibuster when the Senate gets back from recess. All to the good.

Be Seeing You,

I have noticed mainstream news is not paying much attention to the fillibuster

But if it were Pubbies filibustering a Dem Hispanic judge, it would be wall-towall coverage. Dems know they can get away with this because with no coverage it's like committing a crime when the lights are out.

Remember that's the magic number...... How are you going to get there? What's a matter you can't tell us? Don't know or won't say?
