Why Wouldn't This Dem Senator Say She'll Support Harry Reid?
Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-La.) refused to say Monday night whether or not she would vote to reelect Sen. Harry Reid (D-Nev.) as the Senate Majority Leader in the next Congress.
“I am going to wait to see what the leadership looks like,” she said during a debate,according to Politico. “I’m not saying yes. I’m not saying no.”
The Democratic senator noted in the exchange that her answer Monday differed from what she had said in the past. However, she defended her statement.
“I did not change my mind. What I said was — I said two or three months ago in the hallway that I would vote for Harry Reid. Tonight, I said I will consider what the candidates are,” she later said, according to Politico.
