"I just heard Coburn on Savage yesterday, and it looks as if our brave, conservative senators are going weak in the knees and aren't going to even attempt a filibuster."
What brave, conservative senators? Coburn has never been a barnburner on immigration. I can't think of a Senator who has, which is why we can expect to have the House either force enforcement upon them or have no bill passed this year.
Aside from Sessions-and maybe Inhofe-I can't think of any myself.
However, some progress is being made.
If there really are enough votes to prevent cloture-again, I doubt that there are, but hope springs eternal-then we are moving in the right direction, if nothing else.
We need to start eliminating these senators one by one, election by election, so that the amount of OBLs is outweighed by our side.
First things first, destroy McCain in the primaries, which shouldn't be too difficult.
Then, on to his Mini-Me, Lyndsay "Goober" Graham.
