On the Filibuster Deal

John Hawkins has posted his excellent thoughts on the filibuster deal as well as some feedback from around the web. His opinion mirrors my own, the Republicans blinked and really didn't get much out of the deal. But it's hardly a straight up win for the Democrats either, who are displeased as well. Ultimately, it only cuts off the issue in the short term and leaves us with no resolution when it will be necessary later.
