not true, a majority is needed to pass a bill, 60 is needed to pass something without a filibuster, thats why mccain needed 60 on campaign finance reform b/c he didnt have 60 votes in the past and it was filibustered, even though a majority was in favor.
on another note, its awesome that republicans control the house, senate and white house!!! now we will have some good getting done in this country in the next two years!!!!!
