Harry Reid said "What the Senator said is we can focus on Iraq and that there are many issues the President can help us on: Getting appropriations bills passed in the House would help us; doing something on election reform--we had another debacle in Florida 2 years after the original debacle; we passed a bill and are waiting to get that out of conference. We have the energy bill we need to get out of conference with the House. There is terrorism insurance, bankruptcy--am I missing anything?--generic drugs. That is one issue about which the Senator from Illinois and I did not talk." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
