Have you heard of the filibuster?

Dems may or may not care, but Republicans care about it and will never allow it to be legalized.

It was because of a lack of religious organization against it and youth turnout was high. Today, the churches were bussing people to the polls. Young voters didn't turn out to cancel them out.

The seating of Minnesota Sen. Al Franken will give Democrats the filibuster-proof 60-40 majority in the Senate,

Democrats had 60 seats in 2009. That supermajority was ended in 2010 when Scott Brown defeated Martha Coakley to win the Senate seat in Massachusetts after the death of Ted Kennedy, taking the Democratic majority to 59.

Out of 2 years the Dems had that 60 vote majority for a total of 72 days. Al Franken was not seated till July of 09.

That correct. But so what? You said they didn’t have 60 seats. They did have 60 seats and they used it to great effect in those 72 *working* days, including passing the Affordable Care Act. To paraphrase you: 60 seats is more than 59. It’s okay to admit you were mistaken after calling out someone for spreading misinformation.
