Landslide Harry <\/a>
Mark Warren, co-author of Sen. Harry Reid’s The Good Fight<\/a><\/em>, talks to the Las Vegas Sun<\/a> about the Nevada senator’s low poll numbers and prospects for re-election.<\/p>\n

“They don’t call him Landslide Harry for nothing. It’s pretty simple, actually. Graced with the retail political skills of your average monk, Harry Reid has always had to work twice as hard for everything he’s ever achieved. Ever. You don’t climb out of a hole in the ground in Searchlight, Nevada, to become one of the most powerful men in the world by being outworked…” <\/p>\n

“In most ways, he is the least likely politician I’ve ever met. He is not gregarious. Small talk doesn’t come easy for him. He’d rather be alone than in groups… He and the camera maintain an uneasy relationship. Sometimes in pictures, he looks pissed off, or like he’s focused on some distant landscape of the mind. He is impervious to drama, not given to acting out or gaudy shows of emotion. Or, you know, any emotion.” <\/p>\n

Jenny Sanford Not Running for Office <\/a>
In an interview with the Columbia State<\/a>, Jenny Sanford insists her new book, Staying True<\/em><\/a>, “is not a setup for her own run for political office as some have speculated.”<\/p>\n

Said Sanford: “You’ve read the book. Does that sound like someone who wants to run for office? I’ve wanted for us (Mark Sanford and me) to get out of politics for years. I was always hopeful that once we got out of the political world he would settle into a better routine with respect to me and with respect to the marriage.” <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
