Nobody is seated as of yet.

So if Coleman HAD been seated, the PORKulus bill could have been successfully filibustered?

No. The Dems needed 60 votes to invoke cloture, and they got the two hags from Maine and the Scottish dipstick from Pennsylvania to help them to that number. Coleman would have just made it 61-39 instead of 61-38.

I think so. He's at least to the right of our 3 RINO traitors that voted for Porkulus.
