Filibuster reform?

4. On filibuster reform, I think you may be misreading what is written

There are several Senators listed as leaning against it - then Rockefeller and Kerry are listed as leaning for the change. The fact is there is NO RULE CHANGE yet spelled out. Therefore, no Senator will say point blank that they are for the ambiguous "it". As you pointed out, Kerry and his staff have told Blue Mass in detail the types of changes that Kerry is for. That is more than is known for all but a few Senators (Merkely and Harkin who wrote legislation).

There is nothing to support Kerry doing anything against Rice - all he did was to be among the first to defend her and to praise her with far more superlatives than would be required. (Actually exceptional as he is her competitor.)

The fact that black and liberal media are supporting Rice is obvious. I just wish that they would leave it at supporting Rice (and defending her) without denigrating Kerry or anyone else. He did NOTHING to deserve that.

It is just as bad to attack Kerry because he is white and male as to have rejected Rice for being black and female.
