In reply to the discussion: Why is Everyone Crapping on Harry Reid? [View all]Proud Liberal Dem
(24,951 posts)13. I don't know that everybody is
however, every second, minute, hour, day, week, and month they spend going after Reid on this (who BTW is not up for re-election for another 4 years), that's time they're not spending attacking or lying on President Obama. Romney could easily answer Reid's comments if they want to but they apparently believe that the price of releasing the records outweighs the damage rampant speculation is causing him right now. I have a feeling too that Reid knows exactly what he is doing here. With as much on the line as there is, I doubt that Reid would potentially set the Obama campaign up for failure over something like this.
