I have a question about the Senate:

[sadoldgirl]

Should the Dems lose control of it, will the Repugs eliminate the filibuster?

I certainly hope that it won't come to that, however I worry about it.

What do you think?

1. Yes. The filibuster is dead if the Repubs win the Senate.

The Repubs will then pass dozens of nutty House bills in an effort to show the American public that they are productive and that Dems have been the reason for the gridlock in Washington.

2. You may be right

otoh, if the turtlr wins again he might think twice about it due to 1016.

[FBaggins]

3. Nope

They'll use existing loopholes for budgets and some legislation... but they won't eliminate the filibuster (or wound it much further) unless they win the White House while still holding Congress.
