 [At least one committee chairman has said he would accept an even split among Democrats and Republicans as long as a Republican held the gavel.] I'm more than willing to have an equal number of Senators, ... We need to be bipartisan.

 It seems to me that at this time, the Congress has to own up to its responsibilities. Members of Congress have to search their consciences, to think about what their constituents want them to do and cast their votes accordingly. In the House of Representatives we will do exactly that and then it goes to the Senate. I am sure the Senate will do that as well.
