44. Please feel free to name the Dem Senators who filibustered the
Civil Rights Act and then switched parties. After Strom Thurmond, the list dries up.

Better to say "Yeah, our history is flawed, But Senator Byrd is the only one left who filibustered the Civil Rights Act - so we've made him 3rd in line for Presidential Succession after the VP and House Speaker. But he's the only one left and the rest of us are different now."
