Article from
thehill.com, about Reid and the conflict he's facing from members of his own party.
Quote:
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s (D-Nev.) reelection interests are putting him at odds with the centrists he has vigorously protected over the past year and a half on the issue of immigration reform.
Vulnerable senators like Blanche Lincoln (D-Ark.) want to stay away from immigration reform during an election year, but political experts in Nevada say mobilizing Hispanic voters could be the key to a reelection victory for Reid, whose favorability rating is below 40 percent.
One centrist Democratic senator, who spoke on condition of anonymity so as not to offend Reid, said this is an instance in which the leader’s political needs conflict with what’s best for colleagues from conservative states, such as Lincoln.
