Look at him?!?!?!?!?! He looks like a weirdo. And hes a liberal.

It is only the "worst" pick for him because it is the pick that will cause McCain to win this election.

I think the people of this fine country have spoken as far as how they feel about the job the Democrat controlled Congress has done over the last two years.

Harry Reid has room to talk about someone who has actually accomplished something?

He is a nutcase who has been a complete failure and has the worse record in the history of the house and he goes after he.

What is he worried about, that she will force him to not steal money from us anymore?

He must be scared that his new boss will kick his butt.

That's actually House Majority Leader (?) Steny Hoyer of Maryland in the Breitbart vid, but I'm sure ol' Harry over in the Senate probably feels the same way about Palin.

Doing a little math and clicking on the link da jammer helpfully provided for us, you'd have to divide Sarah Palin's Alaska approval ratings by 5 in order to arrive at the United States Congress' current national approval ratings. I think McCain choosing Palin has taken Steny Hoyer just a wee bit out of his comfort zone!

*re: sunshine chick's post*

I had posted up some information regarding the abysmal 16% approval rating of Harry Reid, the Senate Majority leader, then thought the better of it so as to not detract from the OP's posting of the video. Sunshine chick must have seen that reference before I could pull it down hence her response. The person referred to in the video, Steny Hoyer, has such little name recognition in this country that I'm certain more people know the gap of their lawnmower's spark plug than who this guy is. Just thought I would clear that up. Carry on please.
