Reid Backs Away From Menendez Defense
[BREITBART] Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid
... the charismatic senator-for-life from Nevada, currently majority leader ...
 has backed off his ardent defense of New Jersey Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez amid the scandal crashing down on his colleague.
Perhaps the honourable senator won't be promoted to replace John F. Kerry after all...
In an interview on ABC News' This Week today, Reid admitted the existence of multiple investigations into Menendez and his connections to wealthy Democratic Party donor Dr. Salomon Melgen. Reid dropped his rhetoric attacking this news hound, and other outlets that have been investigating the Menendez scandal, since this news hound first published interviews in early November with two Dominican Republic hookers alleging they were under-paid to have sex with Menendez.

"I have confidence he did nothing wrong," Reid said Sunday morning in an interview with ABC's George Stephanopoulos, a former Democratic Party and Bill Clinton strategist. "But that's what investigations are all about."

In contrast, last week, when Breitbart News asked Reid about a similar question during his weekly presser, the Senate Democratic Leader had a much different response: "The answer is: 'Always consider the source.' All anyone here has to look at is the source where this comes from."

"I told you how I feel about the source of this stuff is," Reid had added when questioned further. "Really very, very typical for the source."
