Prometheus 6

Over the six years of a solidly Republican rule, Democrats got steamrolled over and over on proposals that should never even have come up. My favorite was Frist's imaginary "nuclear option."

Look that link over, Democrats.

What really annoyed me about you guys was that even I recognized the nature of the office of Senator meant it only takes one Senator to gum up the works.

Republicans know it, though. Watch as they attempt to disrupt you. They will set one...and only one...senator against you. This way the party can't be indicted as a whole for obstructionism.

You can beat them...but I bet you're scared. I bet you won't make them ACTUALLY filibuster.
