Dick Durbin brought the heat to Newt Gingrich today and personally I want and need someone with that kind of temperment as Majority Leader in the Senate. I am almost positive if that had been Harry Reid he not only would have thrown Speaker Pelosi under the bus, he probably would have apologized on her behalf.

Good video. I think Durbin could certainly do the job (he'd be a big improvement over Reid's tenure, anyway). However, I suspect the Senate won't let it happen. Durbin is from Illinois, and I think there would be a perception that on many cases he would side with the Administration in conflicts with Senate. Not saying it couldn't happen, but my hunch is Senate Dems will be wary of usurping too much autonomy.
