Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of obstruction, I will fear no republican…

And maybe add one or two.

Senator Claire McCaskill via Twitter on her progress to abolish secret holds on nominations before the Senate:

More progress.We have every D Senator except Sen Byrd on the letter to end secret holds. 58 strong. Now we need to work on Rs. None so far.     about 1 hour ago  via UberTwitter  

Can it be? A crack in the obstruction?

Woohooo!!! First Republican signed the letter to never use a secret hold and abolish them. Big props to Sen Collins.     10 minutes ago  via UberTwitter  

But wait, where’s President Snowe?
