The first time I really took notice of him was when this happened:

" Reid's combativeness came out when Republicans ran all-night sessions in November 2003 to protest Democratic filibusters of nominees for appellate judgeships. Reid spoke for nine hours, reading from his book about his upbringing in Searchlight, Nevada."

He is soft-spoken but dogged and is VERY good at inserting very well directed verbal daggers when needed, imo.
