I think that 2/3-1/3rd should be re-established, as of right now.

Cut the rats off at the knees.

Let's see what Frist comes up with. He has one heck of a friend, in the White House.

P.S. Aren't we all glad it isn't Trent in charge right about now?

"What we had agreed to with a 51-49 breakdown in the 107th Congress is what we ought to agree to with a 51-49 breakdown in the 108th Congress," said Minority Leader Tom Daschle, South Dakota Democrat. "Let's do in this Congress what we did in the last one."

Daschle lies - it was 50-49 with 1 independent last time. This time it is 51-49 with 1 independent. Not to mention last time the DemoncRATs needed to replace Paul Coverdale with Zig-Zag-Zell Miller and substituted the dead Carnahan's widow for Ashcroft, just to get the point where it "appeared" they had equality (which they didn't)

That is the understatement of the year!

I like the suggestion on another thread. If they don't take 2/3-1/3, change it down - 3/4-1/4, and keep going down until they agree.
