Can the Democrats filibuster the minimum wage bill?

[Onlooker]

The Democrats should try to get the House version of the minimum wage bill to the floor, where they can filibuster and make the news. A filibuster would raise two images: a power-hungry Senate that wants to nuke a 200 year old rule and a lousy minimum wage bill that also gives a $500 billion tax break for people with estates worth more than $100 million. (Actually, I'm not sure what the numbers are, but I think it's $750 billion for people worth $2 million or more.)

1. they can filibuster

but they can't force a vote. Frist controls that.

2. It was coming to the floor an hour ago. The democrats blocked it.

They made their speeches then.
