Democratic leader threatens GOP


January 17, 2005

WASHINGTON -- The Senate's Democratic leader said Sunday that Republicans ''would rue the day'' if they try to make it harder for Democrats to stall judicial nominees who could not get a vote last year.

But Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-Tenn.) said he hoped a new ''optimistic'' climate would take hold now that Nevada Sen. Harry Reid is the top Democrat, succeeding the defeated Tom Daschle of South Dakota, whom the GOP labeled an obstructionist.....


Reid compared Bush's talk of crisis in judicial nominations to the president's rhetoric on Social Security. ''He's trying to create crisis with judges and with Social Security. They don't exist,'' he said.
