Reply #46: The Dems will not filibuster ANY of these appointments.

[BadNews]

They will all pass on a party line vote. They will save the filibuster for *'s supreme court nominees. If the filibuster is destroyed now, the public will have forgotten about the debate by the time that one of the supremes step down.

Here is how it will go (in a nut shell).
Browns name comes up for a vote and she is approved on a party line vote.

OR

A couple Dems stand up to filibuster and a hand full of others break ranks to end it.

You fight the battles you have to win and while the federal bench is important, the supremes are vital. If the filibuster is killed now, you could see a chief justice ROY MOORE because it won't even be an option when there is a high court nomination. Well probably not, but it could well be Ashcroft.
