re: Harry Reid, U.S. Senate Majority Leader

"Reid looks to stick around"

This article is about the U.S. Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid; the 72-year-old Democratic Nevada Senator still has five years left on his current term, and plans to remain leader of Democrats in U.S. Senate even if the Democrats lose their majority. Most of Reid’s Democratic colleagues support him, and his leadership role. Republican colleagues, however see Reid as a “polarizing leader” who refuses to let the U.S. Senate do its job. This article shows the importance of the leadership roles in the U.S. Senate, and the control and power the majority enjoys.
