I have the following tikz picture:
documentclassminimal
usepackagetikz
usetikzlibrarypositioning
begindocument
begintikzpicture
coordinate (origin) at (0,0) ;
node[above=10pt of origin,anchor=east] (topnode) Short;
node[below=10pt of origin,anchor=east] (bottomnode) Longer Node;
endtikzpicture
enddocument
My goal is to place a node at position (x,y), with y=0, but with x equal to leftmost of the two nodes (topnode) and (bottomnode). I would like to do this without hard-coding the position. So that the position would still be correct if I changed the content of those two nodes.

I put a circle to the desired place. You can change it to whatever you want, you can even use this as a coordinate:
