Harry Reids Response To Getting Fired Is Pathetic [VIDEO] After Republicans took control of the Senate, and the GOP won a greater majority of the house, Senator Harry Reid made the decision to speak out. As usual, that turned out to be a mistake for him. Reid will remain the Senate Majority Leader for a few months, until the new Senate is sworn in and Senator Mitch McConnell will take his place. Early last week, Reid congratulated McConnell on his new position. Id like to congratulate Senator McConnell, who will be the new Senate majority leader, Reid told the press. The message from voters is clear: they want us to work together. I look forward to working with Sen. McConnell to get things done for the middle class. Lets get one thing clear: the public is not voting for the parties to work together. We succumbed to the historic inevitability of a midterm of an incumbent presidents second-term election, a Senate aide told reporters, confirming that Democrats in general were misunderstanding the action of the voters. The markets at an all-time high. Unemployment is under 6 percent. The economy, despite a lot of frustrations, is humming along. I dont have any other explanation than history. What do you think of the comments from the Democratic party? Are they in denial?
