In 2007 and 2008 dems had 51 in the Senate which is not a ruling majority.
Did you read the part about the 2 "Independents" caucusing with the Rats giving them effectively 53? I'm confused now that that fact is in the conversation, why the 51 part was repeated?

Did you read about the 49 Dems with the two independents giving them 51 against Republicans 49 plus Cheney in 2007??You are off by 2 again/
How about the 60 vote filibuster rule.
Be careful about depending on only Republican sources for info. I was talking to a Dem coworker today who was defending Obama on his citizens United attack on SCOTUS and after a few questions he had no idea what the case was about or what they decided, he just believed what Obama and MSNBC said. dont trust any media.
