RIP Harry Reid

[Yoused]

Harry Reid, former Senate leader, dead at 82

The hard-nosed Nevada Democrat employed his blunt manner in leading Senate Democrats.

He seemed somewhat ineffectual, but at least he was not a turdle.

Well, he did help steer the Affordable Care Act through that wall of Republican resistance, so there's that.

Rest in peace, friend.

And he also stopped talking about using the nuclear option and implemented for presidential appointments. I wish he had killed the filibuster while Majority Leader, but he did warn Dems that they had to remain tough. Even though Schumer is my Senior Senator, I wish Reid had remained in the Senate. Much prefer his leadership over Schumer's.
