Mr. K and Berge,

Since there are a couple very contentious germaine issues in the DOD authorization bill, do you believe it likely that if same aren't compromised on to the liking of a couple senators (like the national guard thing), that they might then place a hold on the bill that comes out of the conference committee?

Technically possible, but not likely. Even if they put a hold on it, that hold can be overcome by cloture (60 votes), and I have no doubt that any DoD bill, this close to an election, would have no trouble gaining 60 votes.
