How do you define "extreme" to trigger a filibuster in this deal?

Where is the line drawn? If there is a slate of 5 anti-choice judges on the docket to be confirmed or denied, does that mean only the most extreme out of the 5 could face the filibuster?

1. Thanks. Looks like we're all at war tonight. Agreed.

Maybe they'll fillubuster over it. Unreal, huh.

2. It's simple.

If the Dems filibuster, it's not extreme enough. If the Repugs filibuster, that's okay.
