What does she think McConnell's been doing for the last 10 years? Dianne is slipping...her praise for Lindsey was enough for me. She needs to retire.

during which time it will be modified so that it returns to what it was meant to be, a way for a minority party to mount a last ditch, extremely painful delay on passing a bill the majority party wants. It has to be painful enough that it is used very seldom. Just making the statement to derail any and all (in the past 2 years0 legislation cannot stand.

Let the bastards get used to a period of time without it, maybe they'll be more reasonable about modifying it and returning it to its original intent.

We can't afford MdConnell's take on it.
