naive enough to think that maybe the Democrats will win 60 seats in 2014 so they can actually get things done, and then the crazy tea party Senators will eventually retire so they don't have to worry about this anymore? And then we can go back to the way things were, PRE-2008, where both parties in the Senate were able to compromise and behave reasonably?

Is that really what they THINK? That there's no need to reform the filibuster because we've PASSED the high water mark of Republican insanity and obstructionism, and things are going to get better?
