SENATE DEMS SHOW BACKBONE (!) AND WIN (!!!)

Both Greg Sargent and Dave Weigel agree that the Dems came out the winners in the filibuster struggle and I think this is a great change of MO for the Dems.   Digby passes on a hypothesis that the GOP caved because some were afraid of the crazies in their own party but we won't really know until some more people come forward to tell us about the big palaver.
