1. Because...
the GOP is delaying dealing with a Senate vote on Iraq by dwelling on the minimum wage.

2. Meaning more than likely, we'll be hearing debate this afternoon on the War
What I liked best about Reid's statement was that he said it was the "Minorities fault."

3. I think Reid is letting them know we're going to deal with Iraq regardless
of how they vote. If the minority party doesn't want to look like cheapskates and fools, they best vote for the minimum wage bill. How they look probably won't make a diff, though.

5. Reid just said, "I'll call your Bluff?"

Either way, the rethugs lose.
