Estrada update

It looks like Byron York was spot on in his column yesterday "The Estrada Trap". Democrats aren't going to launch a real filibuster; instead, it looks like they're going to engage in a weaselly talk-fest and continuously request more time for debate. To his credit, Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist has stated: "We're willing to stay today, tomorrow, tomorrow night, the next day, the next night, possibly Saturday, possibly into the recess" and a filibuster of Estrada would have "dramatic political fallout" for Democrats.

The Democrats have become so self-destructive, I wonder if they've been secretly replaced by Republican aliens (like Kang and Kodos) so they can destroy the party from within. Works for me!
