Fortunately for us on the right, Reid comes across as weak and ineffectual.
You're wrong on that one. Reid has helped unify the Democratic party and given them some backbone, which is bad news for the Republicans.
I don't see it. So far this year, Bush has had his way with ANWR, TORT reform, the midnight session to save Terri Schiavo, and a host of other measures. I won't believe that Reid has been effective until he is able to deny another judicial appointment, at which time the GOP will exercise the Constitutional option a further relegate him to mere bystander status.
