...are you counting the Vice-President in with the 49 GOP? If this is so, why are they boasting about having total power?
No...I miscounted.
It has turned out to be 49 dems, 49 GOP..and 2 independents.
BUT, the 2 independents have pledged to caucus with the DEMS...which I GUESS means they have the majority.
I still haven't found out if that is a Senate "rule" that can be changed...or if it is a Constitutional type rule.
