Bernie Sanders might be a good Senate Leader, as an "Independent" from a bluish state.

Patty Murray proved herself capable with her winning five hard seats last night, and she could stand up to republicans.

Harry Reid needs to drop the filibuster for two years EXACTLY WHAT THE GOP WOULD DO ON DAY ONE OF THE NEXT SESSION if they had 51 seats right now.

The Filibuster was used as a weapon. It's time to disarm the troublemakers. The Senate might not pass any laws with a divided congress but it can fill every vacant court seat in the Federal Bench, and it can ratify every treaty sent to it by Obama.

That will not happen if Harry Reid stays leader and the filibuster exists.
