Republican Party Only Winning Key 2010 Poll In Southern States


HarryReid could've actually forced Republicans & turncoat Democratic senators to filibuster. He didn't (& doesn't).



Did you know that Republicans haven't been filibustering anything, only threatening to filibuster? Did you know that Senate rule 22 give the Senate Majority Leader (Harry Reid) the discretion to force Republicans to actually filibuster and not just threaten to do it? Filibustering is very hard on those soft, pampered bodies. Reid forced it once -- Jim Bunning & extending unemployment -- & Bunning caved.



Democrats can even change the supermajority rule (it does NOT have to be done at the beginning of a new Congress, as has been argued). It can be done at any time. See page 6 - http://fpc.state.gov/documents/organization/45448.pdf



There's not just one way (or even two) for Democrats to get bills passed without Republican votes.
