Now THIS is more palace intrigue: check out what Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid did for Republican Senator Scott Brown?

 

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) today accused his GOP counterparts of trying to hold votes later this evening to shield Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.) from debating his Democratic opponent, Elizabeth Warren.

 

“I’m sorry. We have no more votes today. It’s obvious to me what’s going on. I’ve been to a few of these rodeos,” Reid said. “It’s obvious there’s a big stall taking place. One of the Senators who doesn’t want to debate tonight won’t be in the debate. Well, he can’t used the Senate as an excuse. There will be no more votes today.”

 

Brown and Warren, whom Reid urged to run for Senate, are set to debate each other for the first time at 7 p.m. today.
