More from Harry Reid
The country is better off having a real democracy, not a fake democracy. Sixty percent is not a democracy.
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.
But the purpose of politics that Harry Reid understood very well is to get stuff done.
The filibuster is nondemocratic. It has been used to the disarray of the Congress. And, certainly, it hasn’t been anything that has helped -- been helpful to the American people. It’s got to go.
