Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.V.) said Sunday that he was “not going to change my mind†on opposing the elimination of the filibuster but expressed openness to using the reconciliation process for a major election reform measure if bipartisan support could be secured.
If ever there was a better example of "talking out of both sides of one's mouth at the same time", this is it.
I could be wrong, but isn't "reconciliation" a process that is supposed to be strictly limited to budget/financial matters...?
