That could work... if Reid was stupid. Stupid enough to be manipulated by the Republicans, and then stupid enough to just silently take the blame.

I don't think that Reid got where he is by being politically stupid. Therefore, I don't buy your scenario.

[Edit: I just re-read the parent, and realized the claim was that Republicans did the killing, not that they manipulated Reid into doing the killing. I still don't buy it.]

"[It was Reid's fault] say numerous sources".

I'm not saying he did it. I'm not saying he didn't do it. I'm saying the washington post reported unnamed sources said Reid did it.

I think that's a pretty low bar of evidence, is all I'm saying.
