If people won't vote with you, you don't have the votes. The letter after your name is irrelevant.

It's a fact. Contrary to the conventional (lack of) wisdom and of course contrary to the media's penchant for hyping it,
there is no such thing as a filibuster proof majority by party affiliation, because, now listen carefully,
Senators have no obligation to vote with their party. Get it?
Oh, and btw, the stimulus passed in 2009 when the Democrats did not have a filibuster proof majority. Why then did the Republican party ALLOW the stimulus to pass? Eh, genius?
