VICTORY… Harry Reid Pulls Pork-laden $1.1 Trillion Omnibus Bill (Video): "

Harry Reid doesn’t have the votes. Tonight the far left majority leader announced that democrats would pull their pork-laden $1.1 trillion omnibus bill.



The Corner reported:


Speaking now on the Senate floor, Majority Leader Harry Reid (D., Nev.) says he is “sorry and disappointed” to announce that he does not have the votes for the omnibus spending package. Instead, he will work with Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R., Ky.) to draft a temporary continuing resolution to fund the government into early next year.


Reid says nine Republican senators approached him today to tell him that while they would like to see the bill passed, they could not vote for it. He did not reveal the names of the nine. A top Senate source tells National Review Online that “it looks like Harry Reid buckled under the threat of Republicans reading [the bill] aloud.”
