IF the Congress can show the American people that it is the Republican filibuster that is getting in the way of their desire to help people, they will have one the PR battle. KEep the message simple... Health Care for all and show the American people that it's Republicans that don't want it by standing in the way ! Challenge THEM to do something and come up with a bill or paint them as siding with the Insurance companies.
Since 1975 we've had a "silent" fillibuster. 41 Senators only have to say they will fillibuster and the bill is dead. The only way around this is for Ried to go "nuclear" and pass it in the Senate with a simple majority.
