Talking Points Memo has been following the Princton student filibuster protesting the proposed use of the nuclear option:
In fact, with some shoe-leather and handiwork and by begging for back-up batteries from fellow students, they've managed to put up an outdoor Frist filibuster webcam.
I'm watching them right now and so can you.
As of about 1:17 AM, I'm watching and one student has just handed off the megaphone to another. And now she's reading from some unknown document, putting her voice on the line to say that there are some things more important than Bill Frist's desperate desire to run for president in 2008.
The whole thing seems really organic, with a modicum of organization but a real passion. It's like it's, I don't know, really led by students. There are some places in this country that things are getting really exciting for those of us in the minority, even if we in the Red States don't get to see it too often. I'm checking in on them regularly...
