Can we agree that Harry Reid has to go after the election?
IMO WHEN we win a solid majority in the Senate and a Democratic President in a few months we will need a strong Progressive SML. Harry has shown that he's not that person. I personally don't want someone who seeks compromise and lets Republicans walk all over us any more.
Do you agree and if so who would you like to see as Senate Majority Leader? I like Russ Feingold but my vote goes to Barbara Boxer.

10. We have a chance this year... |
|
Just imagine. Getting enough of a majority to tell Leiberman to go be a real Republican. Having the votes to stop the Repugs when they threaten to filibuster bills. This is our year if we don't mess it up.
When it happens we'll need a strong leader with true Progressive values. Either would be fine. Their Progressive credentials are well established.

2. Yes, Harry needs to go, Boxer or Biden are good options. Depends who Obama leaves there. |

Don't know Durbin very well yet.

I am proud he is my Senator, and will say that he is a deserving Progressive Democrat for the Majority Leader post.
