Support for the filibuster continued to grow.

The White House on Monday lashed out at Republican lawmakers threatening to filibuster gun control legislation in the Senate, accusing them of trying to "hide" behind procedural maneuvers -- as support for the filibuster continued to grow.
Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, announced Monday afternoon that a total of 13 senators had signed a letter to Majority Leader Harry Reid threatening to oppose "any legislation that would infringe on the American people's constitutional right to bear arms." Reid, at the same time, took the first steps to bring the gun control package to the floor for Senate debate, while saying he was "deeply troubled" by their warning.
Lee, along with Sens. Rand Paul, R-Ky., and Ted Cruz, R-Texas, have led efforts to hold up the legislation. They would do so by trying to require a 60-vote threshold, which could kill the legislation.

These 3 patriots are this countries best chance. I don't know much about Lee but Rand Paul has demonstrated balls of steel over the last few years and Ted Cruz has earned a similar reputation in short period of time for his fearless approach to protecting liberty.
