and i would say harry reid -- who opposed these changes for a very long time for fear of not being, as dan pointed out, that, you know, if republicans in the majority was a fanciful one, for fear that the pendulum would swing, i think he probably went to many of the liberals, jeff merkley, tom i ideal and said, look, we're not always going to be in the majority. in fact, we might even be in the majority after that session. i think they probably said it's worth it to us in the near term. he changed his mind. he was one of the reasons this hasn't happened, they had been pushing for years. i think it has huge implications. it's not an issue that moves anyone outside of the party basis, i'm not convinced it moves anyone within the party basis. my parents don't have any clue what cloture is. they just don't. and i don't think they're rare among the american public. so it's not a persuasion issue, but in terms of how washington works, it's a sea change. okay, guys. jeff, let's start with you. because i answered that one, so i don't need to answer the first one.

i would say harry reid, who oppose these changes for a very long time, for a fear of not being, as dan pointed out, republicans in the majority was a fanciful one. i think he probably went too many of the liberals who are pushing jeff merkley, tom udall, and said look, like we are opening a pandora's box and we're not always going to be in the majority. in fact, we may not be in the majority after this election. and i think he probably said we are okay with it. it's worth it to us in the near term. because he changed his mind. i mean, he was one of the reasons -- they have been pushing for years and he decided -- i think it has huge applications. it's not an issue that moves anyone outside of the party bases but i'm not convinced it was people inside, maybe a little bit. my parents don't have any clue what cloture is. they just don't. and i don't think that they are rare among the american public. it's not a persuasion issue but it's how washington works, it's a sea change. okay, guys. jeff, start with you. because i answered that one so i don't need to answer the first one. spent woul
