Two Dems are trying to introduce a bill to abolish the Senate Filibuster so they can get everything through with a simple majority. IE their health care bill

If they loose their majority in Nov. How long will it be before they want it reinstated so they can use it against the Republicans? :?

Democrats are for "instant gratification." They tend to not think about tomorrow.

Come on I'm waiting for a Democrat to come on here and defend the Senators that want to abolish the filibuster in the Senate so they can push through Obama's agenda on a simple majority. :cry:

I hear Reid is not backing Harkin on this bill as it needs a 67 vote to pass and he doesn't think it would get 67 votes. I think it is more like he doesn't back it as it would take the filibuster out of the Dems tool box come Nov. :wink:
