Thanks for this reminder of a piece of history many of us lived through, but perhaps few understood at the time.

I think this is the key sentence:

“Republican senators, discerning the historic rebellion against a liberal Supreme Court, stepped up to the plate and did the unheard of — threatening and carrying through with the threat of a Senate filibuster”

Will we see Republican stepping up to the plate in 2010?

I would guess that it is a part of history which few, if any, of our current senators know or understand!
