Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is in the political race of his life. He is desperately trying to push through the Democrat agenda (though he can't now because they are on another vacation), while trying to keep up with Republican Nominee Sharron Angle in Nevada.
Reid is now behind Angle by four points in the latest poll and his approval rating is around 30%. In a year that could lead to big gains for the GOP, the Senate race in Nevada could be the watermark. With all these things going against Senator Reid's favor, one would think that he would concentrate on getting his message out, trying to shore up voters by the elections.
Or he could compare the people of Nevada to "very selfish" children, as he did in a recent interview:
"I wanted to get some presents on Christmas morning. I was a very selfish little boy, and I was upset that my mother had to go through all this. Whose fault is this? And that's what people are going through. I didn't know who to blame but I wanted to blame somebody."
I'm sure you don't need interpretation, but please allow me: "When I was small, I wanted presents for Christmas. I didn't get them. I was very selfish, I wanted everything, like the voters of my state. But I was naive, also like the voters of my state. They simply don't understand that I am the equivalent of their mother."

I hope that Angle turns this into an ad.
Here we go, voters turn against the rats and they are thowing a “temper tantrum” (Peter Jennings 1994) and now Reid is condescending using the same theme.
You can taste his contempt for the voters.
It’s chaos and meltdown. The next monster ping is too thick!
Oh, but thank you for the ping ...
I am the equivalent of their mother.He's half right. ;')
