1. I'm in Montana, and if the Dems filibuster, people would know they
have a moral compass. They are willing to stand up for their beliefs.

We have a lot of greens who would consider voting for a Dem if they thought the Dems wanted to be an opposition party.

We have a lot of independents who would vote for a fighter.

2. I'm from FL
If it's true Republican voters want someone who'll defend the country, what better way for the Dems to prove their spine than by filibustering?

The alternative: the DLC could hunt down and kill bin Laden themselves.

3. Where is the option
Pigs will fly across the sky. . .

No filibuster here people, nothing to see, move along.

You need 41 senators to filibuster--and we don't have it.

4. Do you have a link? Or is that what you heard on TV from some
unattributed source. Or is that just your personal opinion?
