I’m sure Ruth Marcus and Bobo and Ron Fournier are having a sad about Harry Reid’s uncivil decision to try to change filibuster rules. But voters don’t give a fuck about it. Yes, your NPR-listening friend who’s been assured that it all started with Bork may care, but he’ll vote Democrat anyway, once he’s done the masturbatory “due diligence” to convince himself he’s an open-minded non-ideological fellow.
Just gut the fucking thing. It’s too much of an impediment to the functioning of the Senate. And, yeah, I’ll still think so if Republicans take the Senate in 2014.
