In an audio file provided by TheRightScoop.com Harry Reid praises his good friend John McCain (R-AZ) for breaking away from the Tea Party. Reid even credits John McCain for sweeping immigration reform, and other pieces of Democratic legislation.
Harry Reid (D-NV), Senate Majority Leader, on John McCain.
“See I don’t need a lot of Republicans to help me. And that’s why I so admire John McCain. John McCain and I came to the House together 31 years ago. We came to the Senate together at the same time. He and I have fought over the years but we’re also very very good, good friends. And he broke away from the pack. So, he doesn’t control the Republican caucus but he controls probably 10 people there. That’s all I needed. And we were able to get a lot of things done. We nominated scores, we confirmed scores of nominees. And because of him we were able to get immigration reform done. We’ve been able to do some things. But it’s because of John McCain breaking away from this ideological anarchy-driven Tea Party that has so much control over Republicans in Congress.”
