Republicans are organizing their ranks to water down this stimulus package just because they are Republicans....You are correct that Reid wont be going anywhere but I ask, has there ever been any legislation that Democrats propose that Harry Reid ends up giving
Republicans their way just to get a bill passed?..and ends up being so watered down thats its nearly ineffective for the intended purpose of the bill.
And on the flip side Republicans never caved as easily as this Democratic leadership has (if ever)when they were in the Majority.That was my point......Reid may not be going anywhere but historically compared to other Senate leaders he is very weak.We need a more progressive leader in the Senate.......
