Harry Reid is mad that Republicans didn't obstruct his bill

After all his complaints about Republican obstruction this year, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid expressed frustration last night after Republicans helped guarantee a floor vote on a measure he supports.
The Nevada Democrat has accused Senate Republicans of chicanery for voting to advance to the Senate floor a Democratic constitutional amendment allowing Congress to regulate all campaign speech and spending.
After Monday's bipartisan 79-18 vote, Reid vented to reporters that Republicans were trying to "stall" the Senate, indicating that he never intended for the campaign finance amendment by Sen. Tom Udall, D-N.M., to go to a real floor debate.

The move not only guarantees a lengthy debate over Democratic efforts to limit the First Amendment, but it also limits the amount of time left for debates over other doomed measures on gender pay equality and the minimum wage, which were intended to frame the coming elections for Democrats as they defend their Senate majority.

Harry Reid is without a doubt the most toxic politician in the last 50 years.

Were talking about opposite land after all.
It is where reductions in increasing spending projections are called "cuts", and reductions in taxes have to be "paid for".

Hairy Reed will be a blight on Nevada for a long long time.

The only good thing that would cross Harry Reid's mind is a bullet and good riddance to him.
