WASHINGTON (AP) — Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid says lawmakers of both parties need to start working together now that Republicans have reduced the Democrats' dominance in the chamber.

Reid said on NBC's "Today" show that he planned to speak Wednesday with Minority Leader Mitch McConnell on ways to "build a consensus and move this country along."

Senate Democrats lost at least six seats on Election Day, but narrowly held their majority.

“Compromise” has moved us further to the LEFT for decades. I want no part of it.

You have to assume that Nevada deserves what it gets. 17% unemployment Obama policies, abject stupidity. The same goes for California. If they want to be the bastion for socialism and decay while the rest of the country strives to get out of this democratically-induced depression, so be it. Conservatives should be heartened by the 63+ seat pickup in the house, the Senate and governorship pickups as well as the massive state legislature pickups.

I thought of taking a trip to Las Vegas this fall since I have not been there for several years. Now I don’t think I want to. Maybe I should email the visitor center there and tell them I am “boycotting.”

I hope the word filibuster becomes a household word, and Mcstain, Gramnesty, Snow, and Collins, don’t ruin everything.

BOTH PARTIES?????

Hey Dingy: You represent ONE Party - you should represent your constituent/employers - but you don’t.

I don't want to hear ONE COMPLAINT from the people of Nevada EVER!

You have the highest foreclosure rate and highest unemployment rate in the country and you just re-elected the man who had a lot to do with both of those things.

Consensus?

No, thank you.

The Democrat definition of consensus is: give us liberals what we want and we won’t trash you in the press too much.

If conservatives are going to be trashed by the LSM anyway, they might as well do what’s right.
