Bringing back the judicial filibuster is a good thing.

Right now Obama appointees get on the bench with 50 votes (Biden casting tie breakers if needed). In a GOP controlled Senate that still allows dpuchebags like McCain and Lindsay Graham to cross over and put Obama appointees on the bench for his last two years.

Bringing back the filibuster raises that to 60 (or is it 67?) votes.

We’ve lost important majorities on several circuit courts of appeal. Including the critical DC one. We need to stop the bleeding first.
