2. He has more tickets to the dance than anyone else
The Senate is a club with a membership that is so exclusive that only 100 members of the US citizenship can be members at any one time. It is mostly based on seniority and operates under rules of gentility and southern manners that any Conferate would be proud of.

Senator Reid simply has earned more tickets to the dance than any other Democrat no matter what their beliefs. To suggest otherwise would be extremely rude under the Code of Manners of the Confederacy.
