A man most people have never heard of will run the country in 2009. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid will hold the whip hand in Washington come November, no matter who wins the White House.
He will almost certainly have a filibuster-proof majority in the Senate to team up with a unilateral house. The last time we had that we got Lyndon Johnson's Great Society.
Get ready for the biggest tax increase in history. It was axed once. It won't be axed again. The cornerstone of the Great Society was Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, down 95 percent this year and under conservatorship because they had a blank check to buy mortgages from banks.
Get ready for the biggest forced transfer of wealth in history.
