More Harry Reid Spinelessness
“I don’t dictate how people vote,” he said in an interview this month. “If it’s an important vote, I try to tell them how important it is to the Senate, the country, the president … But I’m not very good at twisting arms. I try to be more verbal and non-threatening. So there are going to be—I’m sure—a number of opportunities for people who have different opinions not to vote the way that I think they should. But that’s the way it is. I hold no grudges.”
I'm begging you, Nevada -- find a killer Democrat to challenge this guy in the primary. Or just replace him with an actual jellyfish.

Yes, yes, Harry, that's all fine...IF YOU'RE AN INDEPENDENT!
Harry Reid gives political parties a worse name than they already have, and believe me, that's not an easy accomplishment. He must have worked for decades to become this weak.
Who was that cartoon sherrif-dog? That's who Reid reminds me of.

Deputy Douchebag? What a punk. I'm curious as to what his boxing record was. I can't beleive he was a boxer. Who did he fight? junior highschool student? Harry Reid is that part of my body where babies come from and that's as nice as I can put it!

It sounds like the only thing he really fights for is his position as majority leader, which he then pretty much does nothing with.
That's nice. He's actually proud of not fighting for the Democratic agenda.

Harry Reid has less gumption than Mister Rogers.

But I’m not very good at twisting arms.
Isn't that a requirement of his job?? If I couldn't use a hammer, would I be employed as a carpenter?

When I called for casework help when I lived in NV, all I got was a list of phone numbers. And remember, his kids are lobbyists. 'Nuff said.

oh come off of it roxsteady. That's a horrible analogy in that the uterus swells up to be the largest muscle in the entire body, male or female. It grows huge and starts contracting when its time to do so.
So very unlike Harry Reid and a huge insult to women around the world.
An actual jelly fish would be an actual improvement. They do sting. They do pack one heckuva a wallop and the tiniest ones routinely deliver fatal stings to humans.
How bad is Reid? I'd rather have Sarah Barracuda in his spot.
