Eliminating the filibuster (which is something neither the GOP nor the Democrats want to do) would turn the Senate into a smaller version of the House.




I like the house. They have more people that listen to America and not Mexico.

They have to. They have to run for reelection every two years. The senate has the luxury of doing whatever it wants when an election is six years away. Four or five years is time for many to forget, two years is not enough time.
