for anybody but a corrupt old geezer who's drunk on power.

What they need to do is compromise with them, propose a suspension of the filibuster during which a bipartisan committee can work on making it painful and rare instead of a way for one man to hamstring the whole legislative branch on a partisan whim.

And if the bipartisan measure doesn't pass, keep the filibuster suspended until one does pass.

I think they might go for this. Ending it completely and forever is just too drastic a move for a conservative mindset.
