If this Burris mess sinks Harry Reid as leader
It may turn out to be a good thing. I'm hoping that when Harry Reid loses in court, he's out as leader.

10. Is there anything lower than worthless?
Reid is just...well...a total waste.

He's the best door mat the Republicans ever had.

4. Works for me.
Edited on Tue Jan-06-09 11:13 AM by backscatter712
Right now, I'm thinking of changing my mind about Burris. I still think he's a douche, and think Blago shouldn't have appointed him, but at the same time, the part of me that thinks about game theory and reads 538.com is wanting that 59th Democrat in the Senate - so much easier to break filibusters if you can get all the Democrats to play ball together and get one Republican to cross the aisle.

But hey, if in the process, this shitstorm breaks Reid's back, I have no complaints. I'm tired of his shit.

5. How would he be out as leader if he lost in court?
Is Bush not our president anymore? he's certainly lost a lot of battles in court.

7. Valid point since integrity and decency
