Dean,
I disagree. Even if this is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing, I think it's important. The Senate as learned that their voters are watching and can swamp them in a heartbeat.
They are only giving in because of the massive stink. If they were able to hold without accountibility, it would be held until jsut before a recess, then killed or put-off indefinitely.
The sunlight, spotlight, what have on this start chamber hold business was perhaps starting to be felt.
If it turns out to be a false alarm, it was a good trial run. And I now know more about the procedures of the Senate than I did before, which was not much. But they do have to watch out for crying wolf.

I think it'll make them more cautious in future.

Then we must be more vigilant. It's our government, but it will only remain so if we do what is necessary to protect it.
