New Bloc in the Beltway

In the Senate, no less!


One can't help but ask, for how long? Will to-morrow arrive and bring a declaration from Frist that the senate will not recognize the SevenSeven agreement as binding or will he let a vote go forward and if he does and the nominee gets voted down, what then?

It all seems very shaky. Knowing this administration, Rove, Cheney and Co. are putting their heads together to hatch another power plot. If you can keep it, indeed Mr Franklin said per the octagenarian senate member.What if it is ruled that this (the agreement) must be voted on by the whole senate? Would it hold and if not, wouldn't there be a deeper hole everyone tumbles into?

Tuesday will find me again either watching a tv screen, or running the streaming video while 'putering.

My gut feeling is that this is not going to go down so easily.But I do want to salute those who showed the most sanity today.Let's see if Warner can prevent retaliation against the other Republicans that participated in this.
