On the recordJanuary 5, 2011
I thank my friend from Texas. Again, he and I have worked together on some legislation in the past too. He is a thoughtful Senator and a good legislator. I ask my friend from Texas this: In listening to him, I almost have the feeling that my friend from Texas is saying we ought to have a supermajority to pass anything, that we should have 60 votes in order to pass anything. I ask my friend, is that what my friend really means or implies, that everything should have 60 votes before it can go through here? Is that what my friend is suggesting?
