We need something other than a potted plant as Senate Majority Leader......
..... I was just watching a replay of Harry Reid's summation following the debate on the emergency auto loan. No passion, no fire, no conviction, no certitude - just utter disinterested wimpiness. (which seems par for the course with Harry).
He's useless. He makes Nancy Pelosi seem like a great leader.

2. Plus Reid voted no and Kennedy, Kerry and Biden didn't even vote

Granted Harry Reid voted "no" so that he could bring it up again under Senate rules.

And Blanche Lincoln, Tester and Baucus all voted no, too.

3. I don't know who was more squishy - Daschle or Reid
I'm ready for some fire, too.
