#1 The MSM won't ask Mr. Reid why he won't present a budget.

They won't ask because they know. Democrats have a painful choice: present a budget that is realistic, which means spending cuts that anger key Democratic constituencies, or present a budget that pleases the focus groups but is completely out of control.

So like a rat in a Skinner box that receives an electrical shock every time it presses the wrong lever, Reid does nothing. It's the only course of action that avoids major pain (for him).

This means, of course, that he's transferred his pain to the country. He doesn't see anything wrong with that.
