Harry Reid: “Senator Ensign was expected to be here. He is testifying in another hearing, and if he does not come it is not because…”

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.

But the purpose of politics that Harry Reid understood very well is to get stuff done.

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.

Never in the history of the country, never in the history of the country have we produced more for a president and somebody that’s led his party than we’ve done together.
