the last time there was a push for filibuster reform, the dems decided not to bother-they didn't want to make it terribly difficult and end up cutting off their own nose to spite their own face. both parties expand then contract, and they know that. and when they're the minority, they don't want to rue the day they screwed themselves.
i'd love to see some REAL reform for everyone. term limits, no more 'retirement' for congressmen, etc.
