Quote:
Quoting the Senate minority leader, Specter seemed to be trying to persuade his fellow Republicans against "going nuclear."

"Senator (Harry) Reid (D-Nev.) has said in un-artful terms -- these are not my words these are his -- that if the nuclear option is tried and succeeds, he'll 'screw things up,'" Specter recalled. "It only takes one senator to throw a monkey-wrench into the entire Senate. If you have the Democratic leader who's going to 'screw things up,' I think it would likely be bedlam in the Senate."

Too late, it's already screwed up. Time to Nukem into doing the duty they are charged to do. Vote up or down.

The Libs have counted on a spineless response through Lott and now Frist. If Frist caves, he is a linguini spine too, and may as well just give it up. If he can't lead, somebody needs to replace him. We did not elect a 55 seat majority so a minority of obstructionists could control things.
