Obama will still be in the WH. And if the Reps gain control of the Senate, why would they change the rules back so the minority Dems can block them?
The only reason to change them back would be if the Reps think they can't get together and vote along party lines to stop Obama judicial nominees. Then it makes sense to have 60 to enforce cloture knowing that at least 41 Reps will vote together to block nominees.
Nice spelling on that poster!

You need to re-read my post. That reply was to someone saying Hairy Reed would change it back on his way out the door.
My reply would change it right back again.
The writing is on the wall. It will be the last chance to put progressives into meaningful positions as they know chances are they will lose the Senate.
