RE: Gang of 14

I agree with the idea that the Gang of 14's MOU did result in getting some great judges seated. However, I believe that judicial filibusters are unconstitutional and would have loved to have seen the issue before the SCOTUS or the Nuclear Option detonated.

Has the Thompson campaign confirmed that he will not participate in this week's debate? On that subject, anyone notice this snide jab from Michael Medved?

"Fred Thompson's departure from the race is reportedly imminent, after he 'consults' with his hospital bound mother."
