Cloture (the vote to end debate) requires 60 votes. If you can’t end debate, then a simple majority vote cannot take place. And that’s one of their simple straight forward rules.

GW has been sleeping with the enemy on immigration for weeks now. He is on the wrong side of the angels on this, but he doesn't care.
