In reply to the discussion: I'm sorry, but I'm so tired of Harry Reid [View all]HeiressofBickworth
(2,682 posts)136. In some ways I agree that Reid has lacked leadership in some areas
however, in his latest assertions about Romney's taxes, I not only believe him, but I admire that he is standing his ground. For someone as cautious as Reid has always been, his evidence must be overwhelming for him to take such a strong stand at this time. In fact, I would even guess that he knows that it's even worse than we have already been surmising. Go Harry!!!

I'm 31, and wondering why you suddenly objected to Reid when he grew a backbone.

Plenty of reasons to criticize Harry Reid but being old is not one or them, imo.
