Reid's death knell?

Buh-Bye Hawwy
Reid trails Danny Tarkanian, a real estate professional and former University of Nevada-Las Vegas basketball star, 38 percent to 49 percent.



But to fully capture the magnitude of Reid's remark (and to stop him from doing the same thing to others) it must be called what it was -- a full-on threat perpetrated by a bully who has forgotten that he was elected to office to protect Nevadans, not sound like he's shaking them down. - Enough is enough, Harry  Stop the childish bullying
 After the tongue-lashing Harry Reid received from the publisher of Nevada's largest newspaper, I ran over to intrade to see what the line on his reelection to the Senate is.  Nothing established yet, but when it does get listed my guess for "Harry Reid Reelected" is Bid 25¢  - Ask.50¢  His only hope, as I see it,  are SEIU shock troops who stole the Nevada Primary from Hillary for Obama.  The SEIU has become sort of the  Administration's  Taliban, and will have honed their methodology after watching the recent Afghanistan elections. Still, since the Dems will likely still control the Senate, albeit without the 60 seat majority, so losing the inept Reid might be a negative for America.  Dems might elect a Leader who gets things done *shudder*.

"losing the inept Reid might be a negative for America."

So you're saying because criminal and treasonous activity(ists) has allowed us to suffer an extreme left-winger as president (worse than Hillary) the same will happen with Reid? Name that candidate, Rodger. As much as it sickens me, just how many others could be worse?

True, if you get to choose your opponent, choose an incompetent. Then again, it's hard to find competence on either side of the aisle in the US Senate. Hell, this should be one of our seats. Join Hugh Hewitt's "Ten for Tark" campaign. It's our way of showing Harry our collective middle finger.

People don't realize what a sea-change this will be for Nevada if Reid loses. His attorney-sons are deep in the politics of Nevada and the lobbying interests of Washington, DC. His loss will be a big blow to their power and influence.

Juice: Which of these from the current leadership would you prefer over the bungling Reid?

1. Dick Durbin, Assistant Majority Leader
2. Charles E. Schumer, Vice Chair of the Conference
3. Patty Murray, Secretary of the Conference
4. Barbara Boxer, Chief Deputy Whip

Rodger the Real King of France said...

To answer my own question- I'd take Boxer, who would vie with Pelosi for "most hated woman in America," and is even dumber than Reid.

Remember to call he "Senator" Rodger. She worked hard for that title ;-)

This may be the first test of the question whether actual votes will be counted, or Acorn style votes. We may not have a chance to vote them out anymore. Mangas Colorados

First of all, thanks for the time to address my question.
Each candidate is slimier than the next, Rodge. I suppose if either of the shemales on your list replaced Reid, we could (at least) hope for some Queen Bee stingertainment to ensue. In the end, Libs are a plague upon the Earth. *sigh*

From Taranto:

"Next in line: Assistant Majority Leader Dick Durbin of Illinois, who once likened American military servicemen to Nazis. Another charmer!"

Did ya'll not feel rapturous joy when Tom Dachele failed to get re-elected in SD when he was senate majority leader?
