Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
According to Rasmussen Reports:
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid continues to lag behind all potential Republican challengers in next year's U.S. Senate race in Nevada, according to new Rasmussen Reports telephone polling in the state.
For now at least, his championing of the president's health care plan appears to raise further red flags for the Democratic incumbent. Fifty-four percent (54%) of Nevada voters oppose the plan, while 44% favor it.
More significantly, however, those numbers include 49% who strongly oppose the plan while only 23% strongly favor it.
It increasingly looks like "success" in ramming through the federal health care takeover could cost Harry his job!

I have no doubt that he has already been promissed a high level position by our self-impressed ruler, president Obama. The deal is this - get healthcare passed and if you lose (and you probably will) I'll make you part of my administration. Re-read this article in a year and you'll see I was right.

Michael G is right. Just look at Tom "King of the Obstructionists" Daschele. He's fallen on his own sworn so many times it's pathetic....But - like a bad penny - he keeps coming back . And my guess is that his pay scale is the same as it would have been, had he been confirmed. Now if we could just get him to pay his taxes......
Reid would consider his Senate seat a small price to pay in his worship of the fraud in the White House. They have a deal all worked out; not to worry.

Begone you political vermin (I know, that's redundant).

They can all be thrown out in 2012.

Much better to be a "czar" who answers to no one but the Mocha Messiah himself...no elections to fix, no tiresome campaigning, etc...

Reid's not the only one on his way out. Specter, Dodd and quite a few others are facing extinction.
Speaking of old dinosaurs, Ted Kennedy has ;left us--perhaps the most dangerous man of the Republic.
He will NOT be missed!

Michael, Dell and the others are probably and sadly right. It's evident that Harry Reid is not the only politician being offered a post elective cushy job. These politicians are willfully ignoring their constituents.
There could be another explanation. A behind the scenes offers of cement overshoes, maybe? I wouldn't put it past the BO administration.
redacro| 12.13.09 @ 12:19PM
Does anyone think he cares if he doesn't get the votes? I am pretty sure they have all been promised cushy CEO or consulting jobs if they do get ousted.
Seems to be the MO. Buy em off

Oh no, Doug, PLEASE SAY IT AINT SO!!!!

Everyone here dosen't know Harry - it's not about the money, it's about the notoriety and the power. Harry is one of the 5 most important people in the world and there's no way an anonymous consulting gig is going to take the place of being Senate Majority Leader.
He'll do the exact same thing he did a couple of elections ago - he'll steal it. He won in 1998 by 428 votes over John Ensign (who won the other seat later) after a couple thousand mysteriously showed up late from some Indian Reservation. It'll be the same thing this time - they'll steal enough votes to win.
