“A Republican win would cost Democrats the 60-vote majority they need to pass reform.”

Politico

No, Politico. Stop being bad at math. A Republican win would cost the Democrats the 60-vote supermajority needed for a cloture vote. The Democrats will still have a majority of the 100 senators.

To summarize: Scott Brown is bad for healthcare as Politico is bad at math.

Well Scott Brown isn’t that far off. The way the Senate currently is you legitimately do need 60 votes to get anything done. Filibuster has never in history been used to such an extent. There was an interesting article about the constitutionality of filibustering in its current state.
