1. Thanks for the link!

I was very happy to see this tribute! Reid still gives me the creeps, with his weird sneaky little voice and his passive-aggressive delivery, but this and the Obama tribute, in light of the otherwise deafening silence in terms of official acknowledgement of JK's achievements, are extraordinary and welcome.

3. Well, remember Harry Reid loves John Kerry. He said so!

I scoffed at the time, but maybe he really does!

Very nice tribute by Mr. Reid. Although I think he could do a better job managing HCR, I think the netroots have gone overboard. Some even want him replaced by a Republican! I say, let's wait to "hang him" after he fails to get the public option in the bill (and that includes if it ends up in it at the very last point, the conference). I have no problem putting pressure on him, but too many people have taken it too far. JMHO.
