P.S. I saw RogueBeaver's post but I think this deserves an entirely new thread.

Maybe this is the reason why Horsford didn't seek a rematch for his old House seat?
Then again, after last year's defeat, local and national Democrats might not be so enthusiastic about him.

Praise the Lord!!! The senate is forever improved!

Except Reid was one of the best Majority Leaders of recent times. Leaps and bounds better than Frist, the racist Lott, and of course McConnell.

McConnell is better because he's very open to debate and amendments. Reid never allowed them because he was afraid of his caucus having tough votes.

No, McConnell is infinitely worse than Reid because since 2009 he turned senate into a travesty with his scorched earth tactics and abuse of the filibuster.

Why does Reid want Schumer over his #2? Sad

He is more of a fighter than Durbin, has access to almost unlimited cash as a New Yorker, and will never have to worry about reelection.

Republicans despise him so much because he was terribly effective as majority leader.

Pretty much, the more the hate the more you know he did his job extremely well.

LOL, no. This is what you're supposed to do.





LBJ was President then, not Majority Leader.
