Here's my plan...The Senate is on recess next week. Start the War in Iraq this weekend, come out Monday and say that we can no longer afford to have the Senate tied up in partisan politics while a war is raging, and appoint Estrada by recess appointment (one year) Then bring his appointment up again next year when it is only 9 months before the election.
You will have established a oneyear record on Estrada.
The Dems right now think this obstruction will be forgotten because it's still almost two years til the next election...this will change that.
It will be impossible to argue that Estrada is not suited for a positino he has already held for a year.
