Has Harry Reid's naivte cost Pres. Obama the election?

14. I agree with the sentiment in part

Reid should have seen what was coming in 2010. I did. Many here did. He knew that he needed 51 votes to do anything. Anything. I was for going nuke then. Heck I would have been happy with a simple change in the rules to make the GOP do a real filibuster on the floor. Harry thought he was making a gentlemens agreement with Mitch MC, which of course was reneged on at first chance and ever since. Reid by act of omission effectively put the senate on hiatus for two years. For all intents and purposes there has been no Senate for meaningful advancement of legislation the past two years.

This tiny bit of malpractice however will not cost POTUS another term. Rigged DRE machines, voter suppression and CU will have accomplished that.

If POTUS gets through in any event, Reid has no choice. He has to go nuclear because he will have the same senate count as now at best. The Country cannot afford to have another two years where NOTHING gets throught the Senate. POTUS needs tangible accomplishements in 2013 and 2014 (and I'm not talking about the ACA) to bury the modern GOP once and for all. He had his chance in 2008 and blew it. This cannot happen again.
