The 2012 @SenJeffMerkley talking filibuster proposal created a period of "extended debate" if the majority didn't get 60 votes, as long as minority held floor. Once they stopped speaking, 51 votes would end debate. Manchin is saying he doesn't support that (for now anyway). — PolitiTweet.org

Good job by @burgessev pinning Manchin down on what he meant by "talking filibuster". “It must be a process to get to that 60-vote threshold," JM tells Burg. That's not what talking filibuster advocates like Merkley want. They'd end debate with 51. https://t.co/QFRozutU0V — PolitiTweet.org
