There's a new NYT/CBS poll out that asks the question of whether the ability to Filibuster should be ended. 44% of respondents said the filibuster should remain in place, 50% said it should be removed.
http://documents.nytimes.com/... (Question 53).
Taken along with Pelosi's comments, there is no reason why Democrats should not feel comfortable with getting rid of the filibuster and pushing through their agenda.
