1. That simpering pink tutu's time has LONG
since passed
get him out before he does any more damage to the Dems
Being from a red state just scares the shit out of that little pussy

2. replace his leadership, don't dump him
He's a naive idiot, but he's still a democrat. Give him a nice
job in the chain of command and he'll do a great job. Get a serious
person in to the leadership chair, so we can win some.

4. One Choice and the Best One: Dick Durbin(Illinois)
He should be our party's leader. Illinois is no longer Repub freindly and Bushler is very unpopular there.

8. Senator Byrd doesn't have a lot of friends
It allows him to be pretty frank cause he doesn't have to worry about offending people, but it also makes it hard for him to pass the legislation we would like to see passed.

9. Maybe, but not Byrd
I cannot trust anyone who has ever been a member of the KKK. He's probably reformed, but you never can tell.

10. Byrd is also
80 something and I understand feeble. if he survives he will pass Strom thurmond's longevity record in the Senate This January. He was also Dem leader for about 10 years previously beginning in 1977, so he has been there and done that.
