Reid Dishes
According to The Politico, among the revelations in Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid's new
book, The Good Fight: "He got into a fistfight with his future
father-in-law" and once "lit a friend's chest hair on fire."He's also good friends with "staunch Republican Wayne Newton."
From the book jacket: "Reid is inspired by obstacles. Brought up in a cabin without indoor plumbing, he hitchhiked forty-five miles across open desert to high school. He worked full-time as a Capitol Hill policeman to get through law school, after the school refused him financial aid, telling him he wasn’t cut out to be a lawyer. As head of the Nevada Gaming Commission, he led an unrelenting fight to clean up Las Vegas, despite four years of death threats -- and much worse. And in Congress, Reid’s spent more than twenty-five years battling those who would take the country in the wrong direction: 'The radical ideologues degrade our government, so much so that when they are in charge of it, they do not know how to run it.'"
