I heard that the Demoncrats only need 44 bought votes to uphold a Filibuster. Any political junkies know the truth of that??? I had also heard something about Filibusters, in that the opposing Party (in this case, elies) hasn't in recent history made it as HARD as they could acc. to the rules of Filibuster....Well, the PIckering thing should be great fun, and will require us to call and email folks. Especially ones like me who have half a Republican Senator (Collins and whatshername)

LB, the other day you referred to Bowdoin College and Brunswick. Do you live in that area? My kids are in West Bath and friends are in Bath. I love that area - Brunswick included.
