yes, reid is on borrowed time. he's not polling well, hasn't for a while in nevada. reminds me of tom daschle-all that power, and then gets the boot. i wonder if the democratic party doesn't ask to him to step down, just to get a more palatable candidate to run, rather than risk losing the seat.

I doubt it, about the stepping down. He's just a nice guy.

The GOP has far more seats up for voting in this next election than the Dems, and the only Dem seats really at any risk are the ones from purple or red districts, who only went Dem the last Presidential election, anyway.

I think something would really have to change to see the GOP take more seats than the usual post-Pres first election changeover. Maybe if unemployment still is slow recovering.

I thought the republicans had the market cornered (pardon the capitalist pun) on Old Wrinkly White Dudes! I'm in no way calling Harry Reid(D Nev) a Nazi! I think I may have been defending his opinion. I don't happen to agree with his opinion, but I respect him for making himself out to be himself.

I think Harry is as entitled to his bad opinion just as much as any other citizen. Don't forget, we are all just citizens.
