re: #172 jamesfirecat

If those 40 Republican Senators hadn’t stood shoulder to shoulder being ready to filibuster the bill and thus making it necessary for 60 votes to bring it to the floor to vote on it, those four blue dogs would have been effectively told to “f*** off” and the bill from the senate would have a public option.

I’ll admit I’m playing make believe but you’ve brought up four democratic senators, I think there’s something wrong with the senate when 44 people’s voting no win by default over 56 people voting “yes”.

You say that like it’s a bad thing?
