...so that they're free to make unpopular—but judicially sound—decisions.

'Judicially sound'?  That's just another way of saying 'I don't like his decision', Mr.Rightwing.

2/3rds does seem like a reasonable safeguard.

Aye

I'll quite likely still vote against the bill though.

Do you need cloture after a certain amount of time?

No, you still need PBrunsel (because DWTL hasn't voted on anything since even before his defeat).

Or you could just run out the clock.  In 1 hour 10 minutes, the DWTL seat goes vacant, and you only need 6 votes.

Ah, true. I suppose we don't have formal "sessions", then?

Actually, if I resign my seat in the Northeast and assume my seat in District 2 in 55 minutes, can I vote for cloture again on behalf of District 2 and have my vote count twice?
