In fairness, it would take some cross-over Democrats to get to the 60 total for cloture, as I understand it. The Dems are far more vigorous and brutal about policing their ranks than the GOP seems to be. Even though some Dem Senators would be somewhat exposed by a "no" vote on cloture for this bill, I doubt that any will break ranks now and vote with the Republicans - on anything. As you point out, there are always "Republicans" who do exactly that and with impunity.

Re: Concealed Carry Reciprocity is on the Move: Your Lawmakers Need to Hear from You NOW!

The Daily News is going to run interference for the NY, NJ politicians who have stripped their own citizens of their 2nd Amendment rights. There is no way that the media is going to allow the fact that the NY, NJ, MD concealed carry permits are only issued as political favors to be spotlighted.

I will also say that much of the citizenry in those States has drunk the kool-aid. When I lived there, the general consensus was that only police should have guns. Worst of all the very idea that someone from TEXAS could have a concealed gun in their midst will make them froth at the mouth. I do recognize that South Jersery, the Eastern shore of Maryland and much of upstate New York doesn't share in that but all of those regions have been consistently over-ruled at the ballot box.
