GMA ran a piece by Jake Tapper on the behind-the-scenes activities overnight during the filibuster, such as a dirty toothbrush that he found (“One of the Senators, this dropped out of his pocket, it’s very exciting — actually, it’s kind gross”), before he prompted Senator Daschle: “A lot of the guys on the floor, they’re old guys. Senator Chambliss is not a young man. Do you think this is any sort of elder abuse by the Republican Party?” Daschle agreed with the insight, chuckling: “It is kind of elder abuse, now that I think about it. I mean, they ought to be ashamed of themselves.”
