More from Harry Reid
But the purpose of politics that Harry Reid understood very well is to get stuff done.
I didn't make it in life because of my athletic prowess. I didn't make it because of my good looks. I didn't make it because I'm a genius. I made it because I worked hard.
Get rid of the filibuster. It’s nothing. As Barack Obama said at John Lewis’ funeral, it’s part of the leftovers from the days of slave owners. You have got to get rid of it. It’s very bad.
I didn’t have success because of my good looks, or because I was a genius. I had success because I worked harder than anybody else.
