IOW, she looks like she always does
To: Deb
Sure, on a rule to cut off debate, which will then be debated.

I'm totally lost.No your not McGavin999, I see you here. :-)
I know what you mean though. I don't understand all these vote things.
Is it me or does it look like they come in, vote then leave.

Thank you for the explanation! (hubby just called from out of town so I'm catching up on posts now).
This whole filibuster business has been an education for me in many ways!
To: woofie
No.... this is just pushing the issue.... imo. Frist wanted a vote at midnight but couldn't get agreement from the dems.... So a quorum vote was called... My guess is they are going to push the issue and the dems will not agree and continue to debate. At some point 16 senators will request a 'sense of the Senate' Cloture vote and then we'll see where we stand.... But I'd guess that would be a some point in the future....
To: Political Junkie Too
Are ready to vote tonight! Sen Frist!

Frist being a heart surgeon and all must have something to do with it. I reckon he figures them dems are heartless and in no need of a transplant, so let's just move on.
To: ez
It appears to me and it will probably be spun as a Hillary victory if the Dem win on this nomination.
To: Havoc
Thanks I like the way Frist thinks. Wore 'em down, I hope they have since to do the right thing.
To: AF68
Ted Kennedy is probably already passed out by now. he was out by 7:00
To: All
Yeah Frist! Daschle Sucks
To: PhiKapMom
For a minute there, I thought the hag had the gavel.

Hey can someone in chambers choke Dasshole with that godawful tie of his? Please?
To: PhiKapMom
