New Wonder why one of the 40 didn't just filibuster
Then even 55 wouldn't have been enough, even though 55 is more than what the constitution says is required.

New It's not for Congress that the votes matter.
It's for overriding the Presidential veto that's coming down the pipe. That's why no filibuster was needed.
In that final hour, when each breath is a struggle to take, and you are looking back over your life's accomplishments, which memories would you treasure? The empires you built, or the joy you spread to others?

Therin lies the true measure of a man.
