Harry Reid, political pugilist and longtime Senate majority leader, dies
[THEHILL] Former Sen. Harry Reid
... the charismatic now retired senator-for-life from Nevada, formerly majority leader, who was beaten to within an inch of his life by a treadmill ...
(Nev.), one of the Senate’s longest-serving majority leaders and a Democrat who played a central role in enacting former President Obama’s biggest legislative accomplishments, died Tuesday at 82 after a battle with pancreatic cancer.
The death was announced by longtime political news hound Jon Ralston, who called Reid "probably the most important elected official in Nevada history."
