    Default weekend commentary - 'Filibuster Deal' goes up in smoke ...

    My crystal ball says that the constitutional/nuclear option is going to be voted on next week as a result of this Democratic back-stab !

    I haven't seen the actual agreement. But my understanding was that it had to do with judicial nominees. Bolton is not a judicial nominee.

    I'm happy to be proven wrong about my understanding of the deal. But if I'm right, then it's not any more of a "Democractic back-stab" to oppose nonjudicial nominees, any more than it would be "Republican sleaziness" to try to slide in nonjudicial nominees under the judicial umbrella of the agreement.
