Majority Leader Schumer

The New York Times notices that Senator Reid is trailing in his re-election campaign in Nevada, but doesn't really focus on what that means for New York — Charles Schumer as the likely next Senate majority leader (if the Democrats hold control of the Senate). Richard Durbin is also a possibility, but the Washington Post and Salon both say Mr. Schumer has the edge. With the best Schumer-Obama bridge, Rahm Emanuel, gone, that is going to be one complicated relationship between the White House and Mr. Schumer if Mr. Schumer gets it.
