Graham’s Great Compromise: Nuclear Options and Judicial Filibusters

Last night Senator Lindsey Graham assisted 13 colleagues in brokering a compromise to move the Senate forward from the debate on judicial nominations and be able to do America’s business. He would have been a “yes” vote if the vote to change the rules occured. However, we have averted the vote for now.

This move by Sen. Graham infuriated groups like Focus on the Family and their affiliates. They wanted all the judges and no compromise. They called the compromise disaterous. However, Graham felt that it was important so we could get back to the business of the Senate. He acknowledged that people back home would be upset for a while and then would be happy about what gets done.
