UPDATE:
Read my latest comments here and here.

A group of 14 Senators, 7 Republicans and 7 Democrats, reached an agreement to avoid the rule change that would have eliminated filibustering of Judicial nominees. Democrats agree to vote for cloture on only three nominees. Filibusters will continue, but only under "extraordinary" circumstances. How many extraordinary circumstances do you think we'll have over the next three years? The Senate Leadership and President Bush have been sold down the river by these seven Republicans.

This so called "deal" was a retreat from earlier claims that Democrats were willing to approve five of the seven filibustered nominees. Talk about bad negotiating tactics - McCain and company actually lost ground when the GOP held all the cards.

John McCain may dream of running for President again in 2008 but this, in my view cements his demise. He'll be lucky to get 3% of the GOP primary vote. This is a sad day for the Republic.

Obviously Right and I are on the same page.

UPDATE:
Patterico's Pontifications:

The next time John McCain runs for any elective office, I pledge to support his opponent. I will use my blog to encourage others to vote for his opponent.

The claim by Senator Graham and others that we need to get this issue behind us in order to proceed with the Senate's business is laughable. The Democrats will be emboldened by this "compromise" and will continue to obstruct. This Congress will accomplish little beyond what it already has, and that isn't much.
