Dems not worried about post-vote backlash at home

Democrats today have repeatedly expressed a confidence that they won't face a backlash for their votes when they return home for the holidays, which would stand in marked contrast to the August recess.

"This is a happy day. (Senate Republican Leader) Mitch McConnell said on the floor that we're going to go home and hear our constituents rail against this bill. I don't believe that. I believe that the negativity that Leader McConnell and others have continually displayed on the floor has peaked, and now when people learn what's actually in the bill—and all the good it does—it is going to become more and more popular because it is good for America, good for the American people, and a true symbol of what we can do if we all pull together," said Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer.

On the floor before the vote, Majority Leader Harry Reid said, "We're going to hear an earful, but it's going to be an earful of wonderment and happiness that people waited for for a long time."

They're gonna get their earful come election day.

It's not their ears they need to worry about because that's NOT the part of the anatomy they're going to get kicked in and tossed out on

Those idiots are clueless!

Wonderment and happiness? How about fear and horror?

Chuck is so delusional I have to wonder what meds he's taking.

Majority Leader Harry Reid said, "We're going to hear an earful, but it's going to be an earful of wonderment and happiness that people waited for for a long time."

An earful of wonderment and happiness???? Is he for real?

DC bubble talk. Time will tell Schumer and Reid, time will tell. Tic tic tic....
