Iowa headline writer has a laugh at Broder’s expense?

In David Broder’s here much-mocked column on the battle over the filibuster, he claims to be outlining a sensible bipartisan compromise to avert the ‘nuclear option.’

Broder’s editors at the Post gave the piece the deeply Broderian title: “A Judicious Compromise.”

Opinion page editors at Iowa’s Quad-City Times gave it a read and decided they’d run it with a more apt title: “Democrats should back down.”
