KnoxNews Blog has an idea for turning secret holds into a good thing:

I’m not up to date on all the hooey that governs senate rules but here’s an idea: Get off our collective butts and elect one Libertarian senator to the senate. Have him place secret holds on all legislation. We’ll call him Mr. No. He’ll put holds on everything. Stop passing stupid laws. Stop growing the government at a rate that is faster than the economy. Stop the growth of the bureaucracy.

We already had that, we called him Jesse Helms…

These days we have guys like Jeff Sessions to do that…but I am all for more of it.
