How did the Dems forced a Senate debate on Rice's confirmation?

I think we should hound the right people for the same to be done for Gonzales' appointment. As it stands now, I believe there is just a Senate roll-call vote on his appointment. How is a debate forced? And what can we do to push for it?

1. There will be debate

I just heard Frist say at today's opening that he is in conference with Reid to schedule time.

Best place to ascertain the status is the minority leadership office.
