2005: No filibuster on Alito

Good sense prevailed in the US Senate today. By 72-25, the filibuster failed. Kennedy and other Democrats could not get the 41 votes to have their way.

Future Democrat presidents will remember this day. In other words, future Democrat presidents won't have to put up with a filibuster when they nominate a liberal to the Supreme Court.

Now, let's move on to the up and down vote.   Alito is a great judge and he deserves something more than a party vote.
