Why Nevadans continued to elect Harry Reid was a real mystery to me until I realized that cronyism is at the base of his support. People here saw his political power and wanted to use that to get them goodies. But what they got in reality are things like obamacare that hurts everyone. There needs to be a ONE TERM limit for all politicians, and it shouldnt be longer than the existing term length. In the meantime, I vote OUT every incumbent each election- its the only way we will get a single term enforced. One term only actually is efficient in that the last year of a term is spent now just getting re-elected. If there is NO second term, there is no re-election distraction for that last year service.
The only thing better than his decision not to run (probably knew he would not win) would be to learn that someone actually beat the crap out of him. He made an interesting comment, "I don't want to be remembered for the last six years" or words to that effect. Is there a chance something clicked with him about his leader?
It's a shame that's how he sees it. He also thinks that damaging the Senate and ramming thru unpopular legislation is something to be proud of. Good riddance.
Reid stated, “I want to be able to go out at the top of my game.” Of course! He has been playing his "game" for the past 30 years and we have been supplying the tokens! Harry is an iconic liberal hypocrite.
Good point Salty. Not sure how far down the hierarchy we have to go to get to someone that is tolerable. What a sad state. I better go ahead and drink the bubbly anyway. :-)
Befor you pop another bottle of bubbly, allow me to throw a wet blanket (or at least a damp one) on the festivities by calling to your attention two little words: Chuck Schumer.
I couldn't agree more, Rich. The only way that creep would walk away from that cash cow of his would be that he knew full well that this time he'd be getting blown out of his shoes...it wouldn't even be close. If nothing else, he's giving up a $950,000+ apartment in Georgetown (taxpayer funded, of course.).
I believe he is a millionaire. I wish the press would stop talking about some of the things he did as "accomplishments". Changing Senate rules to get his own way and forcing the stimulus bill, healthcare bill and amnesty down our throats damages the Senate and the country.

I'm Christian.
You believe what you want.
But I won't shut up.

Waste not, want not!
There now, Harry wasn't so bad, was he.
