The Senate is already working on a bill to move the date. An aide to Senate Commerce Committee Chairman Jay Rockefeller (D-W.Va.), who is spearheading that effort, had no updates on its progress at press time, but Rockefeller began work with the Obama transition team on the bill last week.

Shocking.

Looking at the new coverage maps thread, I have to wonder how many TV stations who lost substantial coverage are secretly pushing for this to buy them more time...

They don't want to give out any waivers, even if you never could pick them up in the first place.

From Marketwatch: "A majority favored the bill, but under the rules it needed a two-third majority to pass."
