Here is the online petition I promised you to replace Reid with a Majority Leader that has a spine. For me, the straws that broke the camel’s back were Harry Reid’s refusal to bring key legislation to the floor and cutting a deal with Republicans to prevent Obama from making recess appointments before the election break. Far too many times I have groaned, screamed, and cried, because every time Republicans even hinted at opposition, Reid humped a few Republican legs in hopes of getting a vote or too, and when he couldn’t, whined, rolled over and played dead.
Harry Reid has been such a weak majority leader that voters have come to think of Democratic as the party of spineless weakness. We need a majority leader who will fight for progressive values, not cower in fear at the first threat of Republican opposition. Please join us in petitioning your Democratic Senator(s) to replace Harry Reid with a Senator with the courage to stand fast against Republican assaults on our Constitution, our freedom, and our well being.

I bit my tongue and held off to give one of you the opportunity to be the first to sign it. Franken won the poll here, but has no chance in his first term. You can suggest a replacement in your comment on the perition itself.
Please email this to your friends, and post it on your blogs and wherever you go.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
I did..I’m thinking Chuck Schumer might be good. He is a mother jumper when it comes to making a stand.
Thanks Tim. He would be fine with me.
I’d go w/ Schumer (NY) or Dick Durbin (IL).
Thanks Nameless. Either would be fine with me.
I’m going with Schumer because he’s from my home state – but I’d really like Franken in there to kick some ass!
I would too, Lisa, but it would never happen.
Hey TC. I’ve reposted this on FB and tweeted it. Hope it brings some good numbers in… though I can’t see how it wouldn’t.
Please let me thank you, yet again!, for your insight and contributions to Here Be Monsters BTR show! I thank you so much.
Great job on this petition! 😆
Thanks Gwen. I need all the help getting this to take off,
Joining you guy in the discussion is both a privilege and a pleasure, so thank YOU. 😀
Flying by to say HI! Hope you are okay. X
Thanks Monique 😀
Signed, but I’m not happy about leaving my street address. So, of course, I left Tom’s instead. Just kidding.
Thanks Marva, I don;t know why it forces it, unless it’s to constituency. I only wanted it to force the state,
I’d love to see Al Franken as the Majority Leader, but he doesn’t have the seniority. I’ll go with one of the senators from my own state, Ron Wyden.
My Choice too, John. 🙂
I signed and my vote goes to Al Franken.
No Arguments from me, Jack.
Not sure who’d I prefer. I assume quite frankly that the members know who they think would do the best job. I like Dick Durbin and Schumer. Did you get my comment the other day that I can’t pick up your feed? You haven’t been by in weeks so I was concerned that you never got it.
Sherry, I did answer that. I just emailed you.
yep he is tits on a bull, thanks Tom!
Thank YOU, Jim.
Both senators in TN are red-as-in-necks.
My Sympathies!
TC I have been going over and over the list of Senators and I can’t come up with a one who would be tough as we progressives want to see in our Majority Leader. Why are the dems so reserved and pussified??
What about a woman, I think our women senators are stronger then the men actually! Barbara Boxer?
Go ahead. She was on the list when we did the poll here, but she did not do well.
“Stepnfetchit” Reid is quite likely to keep his job, because the Rushpubliscums want him there to carry their water, and former Senator Obama wouldn’t want to do anything to upset his pals, so he’ll have Stepnfetchit’s back.
JR, I think you’re right. But that’s no reason not to fight. We can;t blame them if we don’t tell them.
May I suggest you might put a tab (maybe on the top left) on your website so this petition doesn’t get buried by your other articles?
Thanks Kevin. I did and that was my plan all along, but their widget was too big for my sidebar. I had to design my own.
