Sorry... don't see an answer to the question put forth in the OP...?I look forward to Republicans taking the Senate. It will be a veritable circus! Imagine how Americans will feel as their labor rights are further reduced, abortion becomes criminalized, we are all forced to pray to the Christian trinity of gods, we start new wars, and taxes are shifted even more from the rich to everyone else.
It's gonna really expose those shills.
Sorry... don't see an answer to the question put forth in the OP...?Rule 22
The filibuster is related to "cloture," a rule adopted almost 100 years ago requiring a two-thirds vote. At times this was two-thirds of those voting; for a limited time, it was two-thirds of membership.
In 1975, the Senate reduced the number of votes needed to invoke cloture to three-fifths (60) of Senate membership. At the same time, they made the filibuster "invisible" by requiring only that 41 Senators state that they intend to filibuster; critics say this makes the modern filibuster "painless."
Rules of the Senate Filibuster Cloture
Reid and the Democrats change the Senate rule on invoking Cloture only on certain presidential appointments, not legislation.
Sorry, but you didn't specify who "they" are. Do you refer to Republicans or Democrats? Because this could apply to either.They hate it when they're in power. They love it when they're not in power. You're not dealing with honest people. They're dishonest hypocrites for the most part. It is what it is.
Love it? Hate it?
Not going to complain about it if the GOP takes the senate?
Going to whine and cry about it if the Dems take it back?
Just curious.

You forgot the {/sarcasm] tag.Being consistent, the Democrats aren't changing their opinion on the filibuster. They'd like to see it go.
Being wildly inconsistent in every standard they have, conservatives won't be able to understand how someone else could be so different than themselves. Conservatives have no morals that aren't relative morals, with "The ends always justify the means for my side" being their sole guiding principle not just in politics, but in all aspects of life. The shining absolute morality of the liberals causes physical pain to conservatives, much like sunlight burning a vampire, which explains much of the conservatives hatred and fear of liberals.

The Senate is not going to eliminate the filibuster nor should they. It protects the minority party.

Why does a minority party deserve protecting? The voters obviously thought otherwise. Having two houses in Congress and a presidential veto is enough checks and balances

Wrong. We protect minorities in this country. Even when we disagree.
