...aaaaand there goes what little attachment to the Republican-lites that I had. Maybe if they weren't latched onto Wall Street like Retromike latches onto the gays on here, we on the left could actually get things done instead of circlejerk about "moderation".

Everyone take off your partisan glasses and look at facts. Reid was an atrocious leader. He blocked amendment discussion left and right, filed the tree like nothing else, pushed only his party's agenda through, and shat on the minority's rights.

Who knows? Maybe we can finally get a damn Fed audit now.

Why does Reid want Schumer over his #2? Sad

Because the "Democrats" want to kowtow to the banks instead of their rightful masters.

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.

Heck, if we're naming bad and racist majority leaders like Lott, I'll toss in the forum's favorite Klansman Robert Byrd.

No Byrd is a Democrat. He can do no wrong!

Bringing up the fact that Byrd was a Democrat is not acknowledging party realignment ever happened.

Party realignment happens all the time.  Party SWITCHING - which some are actually simplistic and ignorant enough to argue pretty much happened - never happened, and will never happen.  Robert Byrd was a racist liberal; they can exist.  Period.

And yes, he "fully recanted," but who hasn't?!  I don't see anyone giving people like Strom Thurmond a pass; it's just inconvenient for your narrative that a former Klansman who voted against the CRA was saying things like "I've known a lot of White n*ggers" as late as 2001 and was the leader of Senate Democrats as late as 2009...

...yeah, and this isn't racist because?

Do any of you guys think Cortez Masto's defense of Nevada's gay marriage ban could make an opening for Titus in the primary?

Absolutely. Masto is hardly a juggernaut.
