They usually spin things in the Dems favor (probably because most of them are Dems).
However, you are spot on with this observation. I noticed it to and I find it baffling. Normally the press spins things towards the Dems but in this case all of a sudden a filibuster is a tactical procedure. You never hear the word filibuster anymore. Did some memo go around threatening reporters and editors families or something?

It's interesting that you start with your conclusion, and then are surprised when the evidence doesn't fit it, and assume something is amiss.
Is there a name for this kind of logic?
