I am not an expert on the filibuster rule but though it may get rid of bad legislation faster, the change, it appears to me, would also make it easier to pass bad legislation. In other words, if Reid is for it, I’m against it. Let’s repeal Reid’s sorry ass.
Every Senate Leader I recall (republican included) has threatened some kind of nuclear option. They hate the filibuster when it’s being used against them. I hate it because, in my opinion, it changes the constitutional legislative process.
In the long run, making it easy to get rid of bad legislation should in the long run make elected officials a little more thoughtful about the legislation they do pass.
