The next time the Republicans have a majority, they will dump the filibuster. They have set a precedent that has destroyed the Senate as an institution. Were the Democrats to use the "nuclear option" now, to take back its law-making ability as given by the Amercian public -- the mainstream media would howl in horror.
The Republicans, however, will likely elicit nothing more than a sigh or outright support from the corporate fourth estate.

Dale,
I just have a quick question for you but couldn't find an email so had to resort to this. I am a progressive blogger and the owner of the mahablog. Please email me back at barbaraobrien@maacenter.org when you get a chance. Thanks.
Barbara
