Supermajority rules discourages bipartisan compromise rather than encouraging it, because it makes the “no compromise” option too appealing to the minority. https://t.co/CqR2oNrIVy https://t.co/Y2R0TOGWdS — PolitiTweet.org

Reform won’t happen if moderates perceive it as a power grab by the left. The good news is that in fact filibuster reform would be a power grab by moderate senators vis-a-vis an entirely leadership-driven senate. But they need to want the power! https://t.co/CqR2oNrIVy https://t.co/9byLPzDDrI — PolitiTweet.org
