I read the constitution, and it says that there has to be more of one than another, didn't say how many more...so I am guessing that like Republicans 50/ rat patrol 49 and 2 independents....I don't know how many there are of which party anymore, and didn't drunk kennedy say something about it takes 50 to do a fillibuster????
If I don't make sense, please forgive me, I'm still coming out of shock from last tuesday....

Where is in the Constitution you read anything about party affiliation? The senate is free to organize itself in any way they want, using any rules they want. If they make up rules about majority this and minority that, that's their own choice, and the idea that a court could challenge a co-equal branch of government on the subject of Senate rules is just stupid.
