Reid on Those Voting for Angle: They're “rude and a little bit obnoxious”

Democratic Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has not been having a great month when it comes to PR.  First he stated that he never said the war in Iraq was lost, which caused both Mark Levin to call his statement "nuts."  Then Rasmussen came out with a poll that stated he was 3 points behind Sharron Angle.  And now there's this.

On Reid's campaign site, Reid has an article up entitled, "Reid volunteers love Reid."  Most of the article was your common mouth-piece article in favor of Reid, until it described a run-in the Majority Leader had with an employee of Southwest Airlines.

According to it, Reid was having a conversation with his volunteers until he came in contact with an employee.  They discussed the issues, and the employee complained about the Health Care Bill that Reid supported.  Frustrated with Reid, the employee told Reid “I hope you lose.”

An average politician might ignore these comments or might even talk with the employee further.  Instead, Reid launched into an attack, telling his volunteers that they will run in to supporters of Angle, who are, according to Reid:
“rude and a little bit obnoxious...We can’t let these people who hate government turn us against government.”
If attacking an employee of an airline who had a discussion with him wasn't low enough, Reid also tries to paint many, if not most, people who support Reid as "rude."  On top of it all, for whatever reason, Reid felt it necessary to defend big government, most likely because he is a part of it.

Reid: Does Not Care What you Think
In a campaign season that is so close, in a race that is so close, you might think that Reid would back off the insults that show he is utterly out-of-touch with average people.  Apparently, however, when someone disagrees with Reid, he can't let the opportunity to put them down slip away.

Vote Angle.

  1. Reid seems like a little man, but I am jaded.
    The Last thing I remember Congress doing that I liked was expanding Daylight Savings Time.
