[Dingy] Harry Reid has a sense of humor! [says Rat nomination fight to be over 'very soon']
Politico.com ^ | 15 Apr 08 | Martin Kady II

It was one of those typical questions from a reporter gaggle on Capitol Hill: Does Harry Reid think the protracted nomination fight between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton will harm the party?

Reid didn't miss a beat.

"It makes me bitter," he deadpanned.

Reid has such a dry humor that you actually have to pause and look at him to make sure he's not being serious when he's attempting comedy. But his usual grimace in front of reporters quickly turned to a grin as he capitalized on the now infamous "bitter" comment made by Obama at a San Francisco area fund raiser.

In all seriousness, Reid said he believed the Democratic nomination "is all going to be over very soon," and he contended that "it has been healthy for our party."

Over very soon? Maybe Reid has added fortune telling to his comedy routine.

He better watch it. He might end up clinging to religion or even worse, guns.

Oh yeah, Harry, you're a card. I still constantly "chuckle" at your hilarious "The War is Lost" statement.

Don't keep your day job. Become a stand-up comic. You'll knock us all dead.

If he ever leaves politics, he'd have a great career as a professional dead guy on cop shows.

A guy who grew up in a Nevada cat house is bound to have acquired a sense of humor.

What did you say Mr Reid? "We've turned a corner!" "Mission Accomplished!" "Reid Lied, The Party Died!"

Frikin' Moron of the Senate!

"[It]is all going to be over very soon"

This statement reminds me of that line in Titanic as the mother was trying to comfort her children in the midst on their impending doom. I say it in the ironic sense very often. Yes, democrats, "it will all be over soon."
