"Harry" Reid, Leader of the Downies in the Senate, Admits It will Take a "Miracle" for His Party to Win Back Control

As regular readers of this column will note, Senator "Harry" Reid (D-NV), leader of the Really in the Minority Party, the Downtroddens, has become as stoopid and silly as his predecessor, "Tommy the Dunce" Daschle, who was defeated in 2004 as his whole party lost seats in the US Congress. Now Reid, who has been blocking and doing nothing just like Daschle, admits (probably in a moment of sobriety) that the Downies need "a miracle" to win back control of the US Senate:

'Miracle' needed to win back Senate

Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid raised a few eyebrows yesterday on the Senate floor when he said it would take a "miracle" for Democrats to win enough races next year to take back the Senate.

"I would like to think a miracle would happen and we would pick up five seats this time," he said during a floor debate over the filibusters of President Bush's judicial nominees. "I guess miracles never cease."

Republicans were delighted by what they called an "admission" from the highest-ranking elected Democrat in the country.

"After listening to Senator Reid's political spin about judicial nominees for the last several weeks, it is good to hear him come back to reality -- if even for a brief moment," said Brian Nick, spokesman for the National Republican Senatorial Committee. "Senator Reid can do the math: A Democratic Party, plus no ideas, plus obstruction, plus over-the-top partisan rhetoric equals continued minority."

Partisans on both sides of the aisle privately acknowledged that it was a fairly stunning remark.


Reid may have one thing on his side: he can count. And 45 seats held by Downies + a party program of doing nothing, saying nothing, and blocking everything adds up to no seats won for his party. And that simply means more Downie irrelevance and intransigence.
