      No, nuking leads to changing the rules, which is fine. Also, if you don’t consider appealing the ruling of the chair nuclear, then Reid didn’t use the nuclear option.

      Whenever you change the explicit rules of the Senate by using precedent, that = nuke option. The Senate’s written rules still require 60 votes to cut off debate on noms.

      I just read that in Rule XXII today! It’s incredible how the party that believes in the rule of law and the importance of following text routinely violates the explicit, written rules of the Senate. You would think they would change it...

      Podesta of CAP in 2005 “ Should this effort succeed, it could permanently impair the ability of the Senate to provide an effective counterweight to presidential power, giving whoever occupies the Oval Office virtually unchecked power to appoint whomever he pleases.” #TYSenReid

      Was a great event before CAP flip flopped for purely partisan reasons. But let’s be honest, they were probably right for the wrong reasons back in 2005.

      You really seem to know a lot about CAP's positions.

      Dude, it's a fucking *think tank*. Lots of people who work there think different things about different issues.

      I worked at a think tank and dont remember Heritage taking completely opposite positions on issues by virtue of who holds power. Maybe CAP has different standards.

          I can’t even follow this argument. Republicans were in power in 2005 when the paper you cite was written. That was also before Mcconnell waged more filibusters than anyone in history. Anyway I’m going to bed goodnight!
