In a great effort to stop the Republican abuse of power, Princeton's "Filibuster for Democracy" Protest has spread to 50 filibusters in 34 states. These kids are awesome!

    So in your view, changing Senate rules is an "abuse of power" ? Your real problem is simple - a complete failure to analyze the reasons for the defeat of the Democrats in every election for the house since 1994, and for most Senate elections since then as well. It's very much like the unreal view that 1930's era Republicans had.
