The deal doesn't say that the GOP will never change the rule. It says that they won't do it as long as the rule is not abused. PErsonally, i think they should go ahead and change the rule now... back to what a real filibuster is. The current rule makes it too easy of an option. The Dems like to use the "Mr. Smith goes to Washington" video clip (why don't they use Byrds oration against the civil rights act of 1964 as an example instead of using a piece of idealistic fiction?), I say we should go BACK to that method instead of just saying "we're going to keep talking".
