Do the Democrat realize they just set themselves up for repealing Obamacare if the GOP takes back the Senate?
Now they don't need a super-majority.
Then you have to admit that the Democrats have done this on principle, and not just for self-interest.
Have I missed something here? My understanding is that the rules change applies only to Presidential nominees.
I think that would include nominees for the Supreme Court, Czars and such, but not to the repealing of Obamacare.
Link me to a correction if you will.
Yes, however, when the Liar in Chief slobbered on the teleprompter he said the filibuster was preventing gains on immigration and gun legislation. I assume, he means preventing his minions from gaining court seats to pass oppressive laws
