Harry Reid's brilliant move August 4, 2012 12:32 pm BuckGalaxy

In an election where we have (finally) seen democrats playing serious republican-style hardball politics, Harry Reid has become a point man. And he’s perfect for it. The old ex-boxer loves a fight and has thick skin and can take any criticism he is getting easily. He’s not up for re-election until 2016, and he may not even run then, so the political fallout is negligible for him personally. But he keeps the tax heat on Mitt. He keeps the conversation about Mitt. He keeps Mitt on the defensive.

Poor Mitt, all he has to do is release his taxes like any cabinet appointee would and Reid would eat crow… right?

LOL
