And now…Senate Maj. Leader Harry Reid

Democrat Jim Webb declared winner in Va. Which means: Ugh.

Democrats wrested control of the Senate from Republicans Wednesday with an upset victory in Virginia, giving the party complete domination of Capitol Hill for the first time since 1994.

Jim Webb’s squeaker win over incumbent Sen. George Allen gave Democrats their 51st seat in the Senate, an astonishing turnabout at the hands of voters unhappy with Republican scandal and unabated violence in Iraq.

Harry Reid was in “hog heaven” before the news. He’ll be oinking it up doubly tonight. But it’s Joe Lieberman sitting in the cat bird’s seat.
