I remember very fondly back in 1994. Jim Sasser, that little pr&*#$ from Tennessee was Majority Whip. I forget who quit above him, but he was making measurements for the Office of Majority Leader.

Then, the GOP started to surge...it became iffy that the Senate would remain Dem.

Oh, well, Minority Leader isn’t such a bad gig, right?

Then...Sasser’s opponent started to creep up. That was Bill Frist.

And when election night came, Sasser was no longer a US Senator. A pretty big drop from “almost Senate Majority Leader” to private citizen.

And ironically Sasser went on later to serve as Majority Leader. The irony was delicious.

Bye bye Sen. Reid. Maybe you can commiserate with Sasser.

I meant, of course, that Frist went on later to serve as Majority Leader.
