Harry Reid: McCain Doesn't Have "Temperament" To Be President

MyDD:

Joe at AMERICAblog catches an interview Harry Reid did with the Nevada-based pundit Jon Ralston:

"I just think he doesn't have the temperament to be president," Reid told Las Vegas Sun columnist Jon Ralston during the taping of "Face to Face," in Denver on Wednesday. The show airs on a Las Vegas, Nev., cable channel.

"I've served with the man 26 years," Reid said. "Do I have the ability to speak with experience about someone who has abused everyone he's dealt with? Someone who does not have the temperament to be president, who's wrong on the war, wrong on the economy, wrong on nuclear waste. What am I supposed to do? Walk around talking about what a great guy he is? I don't believe that. .... "

...

You hear "John McCain is my good friend, but..." line from many Dem Senators as a pretext to criticism the Republican candidate. But no such qualification from the Majority Leader: Reid told Lieberman he "can't stand John McCain." But more than that, I think now is precisely the time to begin introducing this aspect of McCain's personality - right when the traditional media is discovering the same thing.

“The greatest lesson in life is to know that even fools are right sometimes.” - Winston Churchill.

Hairy said this and he is right but early next week he will back away from it. Just like always.

Reid also put out one of the biggest pieces of propaganda out there, connecting "foreign oil" of countries that don't like us with 9/11. The last time I checked, Bin Ladin isn't in the oil business and his family made money in the construction industry.

So just because the hi-jackers were from Saudi Arabia and Saudi Arabia produces the most oil, that means that Saudi oil is the major funding for Al-Qaeda?

Rubbish!

And Harry Reid doesn't have the cojones to be Majority Leader in the Senate. Step down, Sen. Reid. Let a real leader take the helm.

It's begining. You may think that Clinton did damage to Obama, but it pales compared to Rove in 2000! He handed the campaing a fantastic play book.

I guess they kissed and made up.

Umm, I think Obama agrees

Harry Reid is a disgrace to the Democratic party. We'll never regain our honor, until he and Pelosi are removed from power.

Come on Harry ... Everyone knows that Mc'Cane' is an 'Able' man

Iraq war 'lost' says top Democrat

The US war in Iraq is lost and a further build-up of US troops in the country will not recover the situation, the senior Democrat in the US senate has said.

"This war is lost, and this surge is not accomplishing anything, as is shown by the extreme violence in Iraq this week," Harry Reid, the senate Democratic majority leader, told reporters.

Hey, what do you know?

Biden was right again.

[Ramirez]

Speaking of being right...

McCain, Reid, Biden, Hillary, Edwards, Kerry.

Which of these guys voted against going to war in Iraq?

[justobserve]

A president McCain who doesn't want to listen to the voice of people? Whose advisor said that no American is uninsured because of the emergency service? Who thinks he can do whatever he pleases because he was a POW 40 years ago? Thanks but NO thanks!

[AFPISCES]

What I need to know is WHY he did not express these strong feeling in his convention speech where they could have been most helpful!!!

[Felicty]

You, Harry, on the other hand, are quite incompetent at your job.

[Avembe]
