Polls are just another way for the media to make up news stories.

That being said, the Democrats will lose their effort to not allow an up
or down vote on judicial nominees. They've gotten away with their
obfuscation way too long and it's way way overdue for the Senate to get
back to established rules and procedures.

Established rules and procedures like the filibuster? Unlimited debate
has been a hallmark of the Senate since it's beginnings. The filibuster
can be ended with cloture, if the Republicans have the votes. The system
has worked for over 200 years, quit your whining.
