"Democrats and Republicans have long debated how Reid managed to get such a tight grip on the upper chamber."

It happened because in agreement after agreement, Mitch McConnell has ceded more and more power to the position of Majority Leader...because he thought he would have that position by now. And Harry Reid always said, fine, I'll take that extra power.

And it looks like Mitch McConnell will never be Majority Leader, and will likely not be a senator after November one way or the other.

Harry Reid's tyrannical power can be laid right at the feet of Mitch McConnell

At first I read “resign” instead of “reigns”. Alas. Blasted dyslexia acting up again.

Harry Reid effectively owns the U.S. Senate.

That means President 0bama effectively owns the Senate.

How many times have republicans either taken the senate by a vote or tied it up only to have one republican choose that moment to become a democrat?

Reid was voted in with republican support. You can count on it.

If only we could get 1st a Majority (51), the 2/3, then 3/4 of the Senate.

We could REPEAL without Obama, make Him irrelevant!

He wanted to be Lord Of The Rings, but his Hobbit name is Dildo Baggins, so everyone laughs at him.
