But will there be any filibusters?

Senator Chambliss has won re-election in Georgia, one of the few Republicans to win nationwide.  The Democrats will not have 60 senators this session, meaning they will not have enough to override a filibuster.  But will the GOP even try it?  

What are they going to filibuster, universal healthcare?  That would be the death of them if anything else.  64% of Americans favor it, 12% more than Obama's vote total.

So that filibuster is off the table.  What else is there?  Thoughts?

I'm happy. I don't want total control by the dems.
