My allegiance in the next presidential primary is to the filibuster leader
With all the naysayers posting here over the past few days, I am beginning to wonder if I am alone in this feeling . . .

2. That limits your choice to the Judiciary Committee Dems or Harry Reid.

For any other Dem to launch a filibuster outside protocol for court nominees, they would be pissing off most of the party and ALL of the judiciary committee Dems and that would likely assure the failure of the their filibuster attempt.

My fealty is pledged to the person who works to expose the voting machines and those GOP loyalists who control the machines.

3. If those charged with this responsibility fail to act, God bless those who
step into the breach to raise up the fallen banner.

6.  "outside protocol"
What protocol.

There isn't any protocol left in the House or Senate these days.

7. If ever there was a call for a strong leader to speak with a clear voice
about our values, now is the time.
