This is what's going on next sunday, the televangelists and churches will be holding what they call Justice Sunday to counteract the Dems filibuster. Right now there are about 10 judges left that havn't been confirmed for good reasons and the Repubs are dead set on getting them thru. So you now have Senator Frist participating in this event to demonize the Dems saying that they hate religion and the baby Jesus and anything related to Chistianity. Talk about abuse of power, he thinks that pandering to the religious right he will be able to enact the nuclear option and overrule the filibuster. Senator McCain has already came out against the nuclear option and Frist's people have come out stating that McCain will have no chance in '08 if he doesn't change his position. McCain is smart, he knows that power shifts from one party to another and that he will be in the minority one day and does not want to give up the filibuster. Frist will will portray the Dems as holding up judges that hold conservative christian values that are not shared by the whole US population. Will this work, I am not sure, I do hope this gets some TV time and exposes Frist and co for the sleazeballs that they truely are. I would have thought that after the Shavio fiasco that they would back off but I guess not. This must be what Bush meant when he had political capital to spend.
