Democrats have picked up a combined 13 seats in the past two election cycles. In 2010, more Republicans than Democrats are up for re-election, and Democratic incumbents appear to be well-positioned overall.Sen. Reid, however, faces a potentially tough fight. A recent Research 2000 poll of likely voters put his approval rating at 38% and his disapproval rating at 54%, a possible reflection of voters’ displeasure with gridlock and partisanship in Washington. And while Nevada broke for President-elect Barack Obama by 12 percentage points in November, the state voted for President George W. Bush in 2000 and 2004.
As Senate majority leader, Sen. Reid is expected to play a critical role in shepherding Democratic priorities through the Senate, with a full docket of legislation up for consideration in the first year of the Obama administration.
And this, fellow RedStater’s, is our task. For the next two years, we must help the Senate Republicans put Harry Reid in extremely difficult positions. Likewise, we must follow his lobbyist children and tie their dealings to dad. We will simply use the facts and we will be able to make the case that Harry Reid is out of touch with Nevada.
It is an easier task to keep the man unpopular than to make him unpopular and, besides, will have Mitch McConnell around to keep up the mitchslapping.

We Need Recruitment
DavidSage (Diary) Saturday, December 27th at 12:30PM EST (link)Harry Reid is very beatable, but only if we have a decent candidate to run against him.
Even with his high unfavorability ratings, you can’t just run any politician with an (R) next to his name, and expect to win.
This has been an ongoing problem with our Party. There are far too many “deep Red” states that have Democrat Senators, Governors, and Representatives. The reason is recruitment. The Democrats have been able to field much better politicians.
One thing I question
kowalski (Diary) Saturday, December 27th at 12:39PM EST (link)Why is Harry Reid such a model politician who should be so difficult to beat in the first place? He’s got the charisma of a sticky sweatsock, intellectually he’s a big rumination about nothing, and from what I’ve been able to tell metaphysically Reid is more aligned with the interests of gambling in Las Vegas than he is with any kind of progressiveness or conventional morality.
So why is he even difficult to beat?
I just don’t understand Reid’s allure to the progressive masses, except one based on some kind of fantasy they have of him. Or is it that he brings home a lot of bacon, a-la Rod Blagojevich?

I mean, think about it
kowalski (Diary) Saturday, December 27th at 12:45PM EST (link)What is there about Harry Reid that’s “progressive?”
Supporing gambling enterprises in Las Vegas? The biggest carbon footprint used to produce wasted electricity and wasted airline flights and profligate waste of energy (while taking people’s money) in the United States? This is where the guy makes his money and then **DEFENDS** it?
What is there about him that’s sincere? 99.98% of the electricity in power consumption in Las Vegas goes to run slot machines and neon signs to attract people who do nothing but lose their money. Are the progressives and greenies in his party and support base just willfully in denial?

Diogenes314 (Diary) Saturday, December 27th at 1:34PM EST (link)Maybe the fact that he’s Majority Leader? A lot of voters like having their guy controlling the power in Congress, even if he is a worthless tool.
That being said, he is beatable. They’ll just need a solid candidate.
He's very beatable
kowalski (Diary) Saturday, December 27th at 2:07PM EST (link)It took the weakness in the Republican caucus to make Harry Reid look strong. Hopefully we’re past that at this point, now that we’ve had our butts handed to us.
I know Harry has to laugh sometimes when he sits there and realizes that my gosh, he’s still in the Senate. But even the MSM is going to have to shine more spotlight on the Donks in this next year. Harry isn’t going to be unscathed by them, and Republicans need to focus more and more on him, just keep turning up the heat.
Reid is a very weak Majority Leader in the scheme of things. In fact if the Donks were smart they would have him step down as Majority Leader in this Congress, but they won’t.
And that’s good. Because Reid is going to be to this Congress what Tom DeLay was to the last one.

Franken must be from that part of Minnesota
kowalski (Diary) Saturday, December 27th at 3:45PM EST (link)Franken must be from that part of Minnesota that’s just adjacent to New York City, right down the block from Harvard University. That’s why he’s going to win the election in Minnesota.
He’s a member of the “Democratic-Farmer-Labor” collective in Minnesota despite the fact that…
No, no no. Let me tell you the truth.
What happened was that when Jesse Ventura won the governorship of Minnesota as a Libertarian and Harper’s described the people in Minnesota as having “elected a toy governor, and then Paul Wellstone died in a plane crash, the people at Harvard realized that Minnesota might not be sufficiently leftist/progressive, and so they dispatched Al Franken to run for governor there.
It’s not like he was from there, or anything, and it doesn’t really matter. Everyone knows that when you go to Harvard they can either fill you in on everything you need to know with a team of research assistants and professors, or study you as though you were Piltdown Man (like they did with Jesse Ventura by inviting him to be a Harvard Fellow.) Most important to the people at Harvard, the real issue, is the balance of leftist/progressive power in Minnesota, and that’s why Franken was their handpicked Senatorial candidate. And that’s why he’s going to win.
Not because he’s from Minnesota, because he’s from Harvard.

Reid is beatable for all the reasons specified; more specifically, there must be a price for this brand of leadership, and that price is to be sent back home.

Don't you know that ownership is forbidden?
kowalski (Diary) Saturday, December 27th at 12:33PM EST (link)The Left is a property that Harry Reid doesn’t want to own, because it is one of those underwater properties at the bottom of a lake that he’s been trying to sell to people for years by telling them it’s a vacation home.
Harry is going to follow the Obama lead in the next six months and he’s going to tack centerwise, trying to avoid the autoimmune reaction to his own acolytes. It’s a matter of survival.
Even that’s a benefit to us, though, because Reid knows that the people who he’s counted on to rant and rave for the past six years can’t be asked to shut up easily: they’ll keep calling on him to be more and more radical, and he’ll be forced into an increasingly untenable position, a-la Joe Lieberman.
I look forward to seeing how Harry Reid tries to split the difference.

Reid's vacillation

He won’t defund the war, and he won’t lead the charge to have Obama remove the troops this time. All of the past year has been a phantasm. The Senate also won’t do anything about the Administration’s decisions in regard to foreign detainees, and my prediction is that all of the things the President did during this Administration, including the Patriot Act, will be settled law at the end of the next two years.
All of this, from the very beginning in terms of American politics, has been about who is going to be able to take the credit for freeing Iraq. The Democrats aren’t going to miss the opportunity — it is what they have wanted from the beginning, just not while a Republican was in charge and did the heavy lifting.

As far as Duncan is concerned, HE is the one who talked about how important recruitment is. I’d like to know specifically what he’s done on a subject that HE says is important (an on that I agree with him). And, for a statewide contest, two years is nothing. Even in Arizona, which only has two major markets (Phoenix and Tucson), two years won’t buy a marginally known (NOTE: not marginal, just marginally known) candidate the kind of name recognition to take on a well known statewide candidate like McCain or Napolitano.
I’m not just interested in what Duncan’s done in NV, but specifically what kind of recruitment and visibility programs he’s done and where. This particular diary about NV just presented the opportunity to front the question about a specific state.
