Looks like this isn't going to happen. One recommendation I would make to Sen Reid and the leadership is to change whatever the agreement is that lets the minority filibuster painlessly. As I understand it, the oppo leader (the apparently re-elected and all to apparently execrable Mitch McConnell) can let the Maj Leader know they are going to filibuster and boom, the bill(s) to be filibustered are just magically shunted onto the ashheap of history.
Make the obstreperous bastards stand there in their Depends and babble until they pass out or give in or the majority surrenders. Let America SEE the obstruction. Make the filibusterer pay the price and not be able to just assassinate bills from the shadow, without attribution or cost.
Just my cranky side speaking out, but it makes sense to me, cranky or not.
