Heads You Win, Tails I Lose
Ok Dems, now watch just how it's done. New Republican majority leader Mitch McConnel:
Forty-nine is not a bad number of Senators to have, in a chamber that requires sixty to control. And I can assure you that our Democratic friends will give President Bush's judicial nominees a floor vote - if they want to get anything done, in a chamber that requires 60 to control.
You gotta wonder. When this happens, will all the hand wringers in the media proclaim the Republicans are "obstructionists"? Will the so-called "moderates" all have a DaVinci Code-like meeting to save the Senate?

What will we do!

My guess? The Dems will fold like cheap tents to look bipartisan. After all, those angelic Republicans wouldn't have to resort to such tactics if the Democrats were reasonable. Right?
