So we're not counting Presidents Snowe or Lieberman anymore?
so why is america's most powerful senator afraid to stand up to republicans, joe lieberman, blue dogs, babies, and blind people?
i'm just saying, what good is being america's most powerful senator if you don't USE it?
obviously, i think you'll find people on both sides of the aisle who are going to mock this ad because, lets face it, the claim is laffable.
As the senator from Nevada it is his job to make sure no one takes advantage of Nevada....not as the leader of the Sentate. It isn't the Nevada senate.
Harry will come through on healthcare. Just my opinion -- he is grossly underrated.
