as far as I'm concerned Filibusters are all a big game of chicken. It is a stupid procedural requirement that needs to be retired (at least for advice/consent issues).

As long as the dims are in the minority, it will never happen!
I think it needs 67 votes to change Senate rules.

If the R's were in the minority, I do not think it would happen either.
