Let's talk Harry Reid--all are welcome

For 3 and a half yrs, I've been horribly disappointed in Harry Reid and the way he's run the Senate (already wasn't a fan because of the way he protects mining companies in Nevada) but I do like the way he's swinging for the fences on Romney lately.
Let me clear (I love when Obama says that) Reid is dead wrong for just throwing that out there. Flat out wrong. It's wrong when Republicans and FNC do it and it's wrong here. But the hypocrisy of those that have done this very thing for the entire Obama term to now be "outraged" when the tables are turned is incredibly entertaining.


And also very revealing as much of the "mainstream" press go to great lengths to call out Reid but have been much less aggressive when Republicans have done it. I don't see anyone, outside the MSNBC night time lineup, doing it now as Romney and his campaign lie on the President and his campaign in Ohio, the latest example.

Yes, Reid has been milk toast for years. I don't know how he was been voted Majority Leader. He must have big dirt on a lot of people. But recently he has exercised his stones a little more.

Ried is the lobbyist for the Nevada mining industry, but he is vehemently against the Yucca Mountain Nuclear Waste Repository. Something I am also against.

The Democrats have finally learned to kick politically in the biscuits. Using Romney's supposed strength against him. The way the republicans used John Kerry's strength against him. And it is working!

Republicans hate the Clintons because they will get down in the dirt with them and do it better. They republicans thought president Obama was soft. Now they are finding out he is two steps ahead. So they hate him for kicking their asses at their own game.

I hope more Democrats will start swing from the temple. The republicans have nothing to run on. GW has proven that.
