why not just an up or down vote on HRC?

Seems like I remember that was the standard when the republicans owned the house, senate and white house?

1. That's an easy one to answer

The health care insurance companies don't want it because it might pass, and they control the voting majority in "both" parties! Money talks, and they have bought the votes they need to stop it!

2. That would be too sensible. n/t

3. It wasn't the standard it was their bitching cry

they were upset because we held up a handful of Bush's judges, and threatened to go nuclear on us to get Bush's most radical judges appointed.

Kind of remember many of us supporting filibusters then.
