Reid Flak Insults Top Blue Dog

Jim Manley, spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, insulted Blue Dog Rep. Heath Schuler's record as an NFL quarterback while responding to Shuler's concerns about the lack of bipartisanship on the Hill.

Schuler was one of the 11 Democrats who voted against the House version of the stimulus billl.
