WASHINGTON (AP) — Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid says lawmakers of both parties need to start working together now that Republicans have reduced the Democrats' dominance in the chamber.
Reid said on NBC's "Today" show that he planned to speak Wednesday with Minority Leader Mitch McConnell on ways to "build a consensus and move this country along."
Senate Democrats lost at least six seats on Election Day, but narrowly held their majority.

any chance we can replace McConnell with DeMint as the Senate Minority Leader?
DeMint can “school” Dingy Harry properly but I have little confidence in McConnell

“build a consensus” equals letting the left have their way.

Wrong-o, Dingy. You don’t have SanFranNan to do your heavy lifting anymore. Man up, and get used to NO COMPROMISE.

Maybe there are enough new R faces coming into the Senate to counter McCain, Graham, Collins, Snowe, etc.
It is going to be more difficult, even with those Cross-over Republicans, to get 60 votes for cloture.
