We've had obstructionism on steroids
Let’s just get this settled once and for all. I’d like to hold a free-wheeling discussion on religion and the part it plays in life, and I’d like to invite my fellow Mormon Harry Reid and President Obama, late of the Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, to join me. The President is welcome to bri...
We need to work on this and we're going to—I will hope we can have a manager's amendment when we get back here in a week or 10 days and move forward on this.
The recovery will begin when people realize Obama and Harry Reid are gone
We’ve spent months on things that used to happen just matter-of-factly
He told me that when each of the [four] men interviewed him before giving him their endorsement, their single most important question was this: Could he stand up to the leaders of the Republican Party? ... Cruz said that each of the men told him that the leadership of their own party had been their bigg...
The Republicans have said a lot of things good and bad about Romney
This was bad policy in 2007 and worse policy in 2011, especially considering Congress‘ awareness of the American people’s opposition ... Harry Reid has literally removed Americans’ choice over what to put in their own homes. This issue is too important to our core values as Americans not to pursue.
You can be against having someone re-elected but not have that as your number one goal, and that is what the problem is
I think the American public would have sided with us, and if we had held our ground on shutting off the funding to Obamacare in particular, as well as funding Planned Parenthood, because it puts the president and Harry Reid and the Democrats in the position of having to defend Obamacare as more importan...

We didn’t bring up the maximum leverage because the decision was made by leadership to avoid the prospect of a showdown with the president or Harry Reid that could result in a potential shutdown of government

Religion writers tend to do a good job ... Problems come when you get political writers or sports writers who are not as familiar with the nuances of the religion. So when you get a Mitt Romney, Jon Huntsman or a Harry Reid, and someone makes a comment, the journalist may unknowingly pass on something t...
So the number one goal and I hope the Republicans have learned a lesson, as extending the payroll tax
If President Obama is not willing to seize the moral high ground and step aside, then the two Democratic leaders in Congress, Sen. Harry Reid and Rep. Nancy Pelosi, must urge the president not to seek re-election — for the good of the party and most of all for the good of the country. And they must pres...
I don't think ... anyone can question or they should question our having reached out to Republicans ... We've done everything we could to work with them. We're going to continue to do that.
By agreeing to help The Hermanator PAC, either by volunteering or by giving a monetary donation, you will be helping to elect conservative candidates that share our principles and values ... Let's send President Obama, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid a message for the right kind of change.
I hope with what happened the last week of this last year in Congress that the Republicans have learned they can't be guided by the 'tea party,' because the 'tea party' is putting them right over the cliff
Who Republicans nominate can dramatically affect the outcome of an election. Harry Reid was the best example of this; people didn’t like him, didn’t like the job he was doing, didn’t like the direction of the country, and they elected him because they didn’t like the alternative.
Were going to do just fine come November
Why is everyone so concerned about Mitt Romney being a Mormon? The Senate majority leader, Harry Reid, is a Mormon. You never hear about it in the media. By the way, Mormons are Christians.
The No. 1 goal, and I hope they have learned a lesson, is extending the payroll tax ... That was a disaster for them.
