| 24. If he does this, it will restore some of my respect for Dem Sens. |

Edited on Thu Jan-26-06 11:03 AM by TayTay
Kerry already said he was in favor of a filibuster last weekend. But no one else was saying anything with the new 'F' word in it.
If he is saying that today, then maybe some other Sens read that NYTimes editorial today, ate their Wheaties and decided to stand up for principle. That is wonderful and we should soon know how those folks are. (And they will all deserve credit.)
