Not content to let his banking chairman conclude negotiations with Senate Republicans, Majority Leader Harry Reid will reportedly force repeated votes to sustain a filibuster on financial reform, in an effort to collapse the vulnerable left flank of the GOP caucus:

Democratic aides said Reid would call senators to reconsider the motion to begin debate of the reform bill on Tuesday.
Reid also plans to file a motion Monday evening to end the GOP filibuster. That would set up a third vote on Wednesday to end the filibuster.
A second Democratic aide said leaders wanted to focus public attention on GOP “obstruction.”
