Trouble At Home for Dirty Harry

The Las Vegas Review-Journal poll showed Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's Unfavorable rating had moved past the 50 percent mark -- 51 percent, to be precise. His favorable rating was 32 percent, 2 points lower than embattled, lame duck President George W. Bush. The Review Journal's Sherman Douglas on Reid:

Let me spell out Harry's problem. No one can win a statewide race in Nevada on a platform that appears anti-military, anti-family, anti-marriage, anti-religion, anti-free speech, pro-illegal
immigration, pro-abortion, and pro-taxation. While Harry isn't all of that personally, he clearly projects elements of them all when he's doing the bidding of his party on the national stage. -(It also doesn't help Harry's numbers when he foolishly attacks Rush Limbaugh, only to have the conservative radio talk show host lash back in a brutally effective rebuttal for the entire nation to
hear.)

Does anyone know what the last Democratic Majority Leader in the Senate is doing now? He is not in the Senate. Tom Daschle was the figurehead for the left wing of the Democratic Party and defeated by young buck John Thune. While was Majority Leader, Daschle marched too far to the left and alienated the conservative citizens of South Dakota. Reid isn't up for re-election until 2010 but that gives him plenty of air time standing next to Nancy Pelosi explaining their views on impeachment, illegal immigration, and Rangel's "mother of all tax plans",the better for the GOP. Don't forget Harry's greatest hits; "We killed the Patriot Act" and "The war is lost."
To refresh your memory, here is what happened to the Patriot Act.
