Another Poll Shows Reid Trailing Republicans For 2010 Race

Chicken Harry thought compromising on every issue, even when he had a substantial majority, made him a Statesman. Instead it made him weak and ineffective, and he lost the respect of both his supporters and his enemies. Chuck Shumer, it's time for you to lead the Senate. Buh bye Chicken Harry.

Keep placating those Republicans Harry, though you know they're not going to vote for you regardless right? Do you figure the progressive support you will lose will be made up by peeling off enough Republican votes?

The Senate Dems would be stronger with Reid out as leader so i view it as addition by subtraction. GOP will torpedo their own candidates though, because they know Reid is the gift that keeps on giving.

Perhaps if Reid had a spine, was able to speak on issues convincingly, could hold his caucus together, stood up to Blue Dogs once in a while, had bounced Max Baucus from his Chairmanship, handed Joe Lieberman his hat and shown him the door, or shown any evidence of effective leadership, he wouldn't be worrying about this kind of thing. Unfortunately, none of the above is true, so now he's in rather deep merde, isn't he? (Along with the rest of us, alas.)

Sometimes I think the best thing that could happen to the Democratic Party would be for people like Reid, Ben Nelson and other "blue dogs" to lose their seats.
