Harry Reid has done a very good job as Minority Leader, not sure why you're criticizing him.

I agree with nickshep.  Biden is pretty scrappy.  Reid, on the other hand, whines and complains that any critcism of him by Republicans isn't 'fair.'    As a US Senator, I would hope that Reid knows that he is engaged in national politics, an arena that involves setting the course of national strategy.  Fortunately for us on the right, Reid comes across as weak and ineffectual.  I can't think of one policy success he has had so far this year.

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.

Candidates I would vote for on the Republican side:

Rudy Giuliani
Condi Rice
Jeb Bush
Bill Frist

My preferred candidate:
(As of right now--it *used* to be Rudy)
Jeb Bush....but we all know it won't happen.

I'd love to see a Bush/Rice or Rice/Bush ticket.
