Filibuster Rule Change Opposed

WaPo
But by a 2 to 1 ratio, the public rejected easing Senate rules in a way that would make it harder for Democratic senators to prevent final action on Bush's nominees. Even many Republicans were reluctant to abandon current Senate confirmation procedures: Nearly half opposed any rule changes, joining eight in 10 Democrats and seven in 10 political independents, the poll found.
The polling on this is remarkably consistent and remarkably bad for the Rs.

The next several days should be interesting.
