US Senator Mike DeWine ( R ) was one of those GOP Senators who crafted the compromise responsible for killing Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist's so-called "nuclear option" to eliminate Senate filibusters of judicial nominees. So upset, in fact, that some are reportedly trying to urge former US House Budget Committee Chair John Kasich -- a ''00 Presidential candidate -- to make a primary challenge to DeWine next year. DeWine's stance could also have some negative fallout for his son, Pat DeWine, who is a GOP candidate for Congress in the crowded June 14 special election primary. Junior has already made a point of saying he thinks Dad was wrong for helping the Dems forge the compromise -- but some conservative primary voters still may seek revenge against Dad by voting against his kid.
