Is Harry Reid Finished in the Senate, Will He Retire … Reid is the ‘Most Vulnerable’ in 2016

COULD DINGY HARRY BE CALLING IT QUITS IN 2016?

Could it finally be the end of the road for Sen. Harry Reid? The Democrat Senate Minority Leader is considered the most vulnerable in 2016. According to the “Crystal Ball,” Reid is one of the most vulnerable Democrat Senators up for reelection in the 2016 cycle. Reid will be 77 years old in 2016 and most likely still in a position to not be in the majority. However, every time that it is predicted that its over for Harry Reid and he is trailing in the polls prior to election day, miraculously, he pulls a rabbit out of a hat.

This this VIDEO, boy does he sound tired and old

Senate minority leader Harry Reid is the most vulnerable Democrat up for re-election in 2016, and may retire to duck a humiliating defeat, according to a new analysis of the 2016 race.

“We identified Reid as probably the most vulnerable Democratic incumbent in this Senate cycle,” said a “Crystal Ball” report from the University of Virginia’s Center for Politics.

It’s also possible that he will retire, although his heavy fundraising and public comments suggest that he’s running again,” said the latest report from analyst Geoffrey Skelley. Recent reports suggest Reid is going for his sixth term.

The analysis found that of all senators ever to seek a sixth term, Reid’s ratings and margin of victory in past races puts him on the endangered list.

The Crystal Ball – Harry Reid & The Senate Survivors:

In the Crystal Ball’s first batch of 2016 Senate ratings in December 2014, we identified Reid as probably the most vulnerable Democratic incumbent in this Senate cycle. While we rate the contest as Leans Democratic, the prospect of a possible challenge from popular Gov. Brian Sandoval (R-NV) could seriously endanger Reid’s future in Congress’ upper chamber, and Reid’s weak approval ratings also make him potentially vulnerable to other, less heralded Republicans. It’s also possible that he will retire, although his heavy fundraising and public comments suggest that he’s running again. That said, Reid just suffered significant injuries in an exercising accident, and his wife and daughter have also had recent illnesses.

Le Journal du Dimanche Poll: 42% of French Opposed to Charlie Hebdo’s Cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad

And you wonder why Western Europe is considered to have already lost the war on terror to Islam?

In a recent poll by Le Journal du Dimanche, 57% of respondents stated that ‘Charlie Hebdo’ should continue to print cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad; however, an amazing 42% oppose Charlie Hebdo’s cartoons of Muhammad. So I guess that these people do not believe in Je Suis Charlie Hebdo. With nearly 50% of French not believing in freedom of speech and freedom of the press, does anyone wonder why many believe that western Europe has lost the war against Islam? What else would you expect when you allow Muslim “free zones” within a sovereign country?

More than 4 in 10 French people believe Charlie Hebdo shouldn’t publish cartoons depicting the prophet Muhammad, given that many Muslims find the images offensive, according to a recent poll by a French publication, published Sunday.

A survey conducted by Le Journal du Dimanche, a French weekly newspaper, presented participants with this information: “Some Muslims feel attacked or injured by the publication of cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad.”

In the final tally of responses, 42% checked a box to indicate that the country should “consider these reactions and avoid publishing these cartoons,” while 57% of respondents checked “we should ignore these reactions and continue to publish such cartoons.” The remaining 1% checked “no opinion.”

NFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME: Green Bay Packers vs. Seattle Seahawks – VIDEO (Update: Packers 22 – Seahawks 28)(Update: Seattle Wins in OT!!!)

ARE YOU READY FOR SOME CHAMPIONSHIP FOOTBALL!!!

NFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME: THE GREEN BAY PACKERS VS. THE SEATTLE SEAHAWKS

It is Championship Sunday in the NFL, the winner earns the rights to play in the Super Bowl, the loser goes home and spends an entire off season wondering what if. The Packers come into the northwest with a wounded QB Aaron Rodgers and his calf issue against the NFL’s number one defense. The two played each other in week one, the Seahawks destroyed the Packers, 36-16, when Seattle was hardly playing their best football. During the final 6 games of the season, where the Seahawks went 6-0, giving up an average of 6.5 points.

It is hard to believe that an injured Aaron Rodgers is going to go into Seattle, away from the friendly confines of the frozen tundra of Lambeau Field and defeat the defending Super Bowl champions. With the rain, the calf injury to Rodgers, the 12th man and more importantly, the Legion of Boom, I see the Seahawks returning to defend their title. I cannot see Aaron Rodgers extending plays with his legs against this defense without resulting in dire consequences. Many pundits say it will be a close game, I am not so sure about that. This one could snow ball.

 FOX SPORTS: NFC Championship preview.

UPDATE I: Seahawks give Packers a gift 3 points on Russell Wilson interception. After Seattle CB Richard Sherman had intercepted Rodgers in the end zone.

UPDATE II: Seahawks give the Packers another gift turn over as they fumbled on the kickoff return. However, Green Bay failed to cash in again in the red zone and only came away with another FG. Seattle keeps this up and they will blow this game. In the beginning of this game, it appears that Seattle’s head is no where in the game.

UPDATE III: Touchdown Packers! Sorry, but if the Seahawks are not going to rush the QB and play like the Dallas Cowboy defense, they will get picked a part and destroyed by QB Aaron Rodgers. Hey Seahawks, ever heard of a blitz?

UPDATE IV: Add another FG to the Packers score. Crosby is not 3 for 3. The Seahawks can thank their lucky stars the score is not 24 to zero that this point. although the way they are playing today, it might just be a matter of time before that is the case. Seattle has yet to even show up to the game. Talk about over-confident.

UPDATE V: Another turnover for the Seahawks, their 3rd of the game. UNREAL, the Seahawks are panicking and it is only the first half. Good grief, Seattle is totally out of sorts.

UPDATE VI: HALF TIME – WHAT A TERRIBLE GAME SO FAR, MIGHT AS WELL CALL IT THE TURNOVER BOWL.

The Seattle Seahawk offense has been offensive. Russell Wilson has actually thrown more interceptions than completions in the first half. His QB rating is 0, zero, nada, nien. What a disaster. Rodgers is hardly burning it up himself, but when your counterpart has a QB rating of 0.0, you look all world.

UPDATE VII: Seattle finally scores on a fake FG, throw for a TD (VIDEO). This may be just the thing that was needed for Seattle to light a fire under them and change the momentum in the game. Then again, maybe not. The Seattle offense has just been atrocious today. The only way the Seahawks are going to pull this game off is on special teams and defense.

UPDATE VIII: Yet another GB field goal give the Packers a 12 point lead. It is hard to imagine that the Seahawks could score 2 TD’s in the 4th quarter after having done butkis for the entire game.

UPDATE IX: It may be a little too late … Seahawks score on a Wilson TD run (VIDEO)

UPDATE X: WOW… UNREAL, THE SEAHAWKS KICK AN ONSIDE KICK AND RECOVER THE BALL, THEY HAVE LIFE.

UPDATE XI: Are you kidding me … SEAHAWKS score a TD as Marshawn Lynch 24 yards for a score and they get the 2 point conversion. However, they have left 1:25 to GB.

UPDATE XII: Packers kick FG with 14 seconds left to tie the game. Wondering why Kam Chancellor did not leap the pile to block the FG attempt.

We are headed to OT. Seattle wins the toss and they will receive the ball to start overtime.

UPDATE XIII: ITS OVER … UNBELIEVABLE, SEAHAWKS WIN IN OT … Jermaine Kearse Pass From Russell Wilson for 35 Yards for the TD!!!

I can’t even imagine how badly the Packers are kicking themselves. The Seahawks had done nothing until about 3.30 minutes left in the 4th quarter. Then, the GB Packers could not stop them.

Gunshots Fired Outside of Vice President Joe Biden’s Private Home in Greenville, Delaware

Gunshots were fired Saturday night out of a  a vehicle as it sped past Vice President Joe Biden’s private residence in Greenville, Delaware. Neither the Secret Service and the local police were able to catch the vehicle as it raced away from the scene. That’s comforting.  According to reports, Biden and his wife, Jill, were not at home at the time when the incident occurred at around 8:25 pm.  The Secret Service is working with the New Castle County Police on investigating this incident.

On Saturday night a vehicle drove near Vice President Joe Biden’s residence in Delaware and fired multiple gun shots, but the vice president and his wife, Jill, were not home at the time, Secret Service spokesman Robert Hoback told CNN.

The incident occurred around 8:28 p.m.

“A vehicle drove by the vice president’s residence at a high rate of speed and fired multiple gun shots. This occurred on a public road outside the established security perimeter. The shots were heard by Secret Service personnel posted at the residence and a vehicle was observed by an agent leaving the scene at a high rate of speed,” Hoback said.

Joe Biden was unavailable for comment to ask whether if he was home, if he would have taken his double barrel shotgun on the balcony and fired two blasts into the air to protect himself (VIDEO).
