Was there an attempt to change the Senate rules or did the Dems chicken out again?

Sooz... from what I heard on MSNBC: The Senate has ONE day to change the rules. The change that was made was to allow several days to change the rules. So we are on Day 1.3. :)

actually, Reid made a rule change to change the definition of "day" to equal THREE WEEKS.
this one will wait until inauguration day, approximately.
