@cjane87 Killing the legislative filibuster would absolutely give Republicans the ability to deliver on goals they say they have, but as we saw in the House under Paul Ryan, the power to do the thing doesn't necessarily mean the thing will be done. — PolitiTweet.org

@cjane87 I think I'd challenge your premise a bit? The case for killing the filibuster is that it is simply bad, on the merits, to have a de facto supermajority requirement for ordinary legislation AND that it obscures the lines of accountability such that it incentivizes bad behavior. — PolitiTweet.org

@cjane87 If, suddenly, you could be expected to deliver on privatizing Social Security or gutting Medicare, would you actually do it? And if you wouldn't, would you continue to campaign on it? — PolitiTweet.org
