Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) was unusually candid about his feelings toward Rep. Alan Grayson (D-Fla.) in a fundraising appeal for Grayson’s Senate opponent.

“I will be blunt. I want Alan Grayson to lose,” Reid wrote in an email sent out Monday.

In case anyone isn’t clear about where Reid stands, the subject line of the email reads: “I want Grayson to lose.”

Grayson is competing for Florida’s Democratic Senate nomination against Rep. Patrick Murphy, who is supported by the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee and much of the party establishment. The Senate seat is currently held by Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), who has said he won’t run for re-election.
