****”House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md., said the rules change would apply only to Colombia.”****

She may want to reconsider this maneuver. If she ticks off enough Republican Senators and they maintain over 45 after the election but a Democrat wins the White House there won't be a single piece of legislation passed because the Republicans will filibuster everything without explanation.

bull crap, toby. The Republicans, with a few notable exceptions, are a bunch of spineless jellyfish. And that is when they're at their strongest.
