1. I would think not
Not only is talking about it detrimental to their corporate masters, I think we would have heard by now from a DUer if anything was said. Can't say that I'm surprised, of course.

3. It wasn't a filibuster
He wasn't blocking a vote.

5. as Senator Sanders said...call it what you like...
a senator that takes to the floor for 8 hrs is historical in modern times..a direct challenge to the president and his great compromise...it was newsworthy ..please

6. The agenda was to leave the impression that it is hard and rare.
So, the Republican's huge string of filibusters will seem small.
