This is part of a larger misperception, that the filibuster will be killed so progressives can enact progressive bills. That may be the ultimate effect of axing the filibuster. But that's not how the filibuster will die, if it can be killed — PolitiTweet.org

I should note that this is true under *any* scenario--even the one where Manchin gives up the filibuster. In my replies, there seems to be a belief that if the Dems axe the filibuster that HR1 can just pass. And that's not so. — PolitiTweet.org

Instead, the only bill that could kill the filibuster is one that Manchin, etc., believes serious *ought* to have 60 votes--given both the process and the merits--and *must* pass, given the stakes. In failing, the bill proves to Manchin etc that the filibuster must go. — PolitiTweet.org
