Reluctantly, again, I must object. But I would say to my colleague from Arizona, I would like very much to sit down and work out these other problems. I think that if he and I sat in a room together, we could figure these things out ourselves pretty well, and it would be our job to persuade our colleagues to try to do the same. I understand. I used the same words--``train wreck''--earlier this morning. If we don't come to a good agreement, for instance, on appropriations and the budget, the defense forces that he so dearly holds and so many of the issues on our side would be hurt dramatically--the country would. So I promise him, I will endeavor to work with him in the most good-faith way. The PRESIDING OFFICER. Objection is heard. Mr. McCAIN. May I ask one more question of the Democratic leader? When would Mr. Shanahan's nomination be in order?
