"Add Harry Reid to the list of troubles dogging Hillary Clinton as she stumbles toward the
Democratic nomination for president.
The powerful Senate minority leader delivered an unusual warning to Clinton on selecting a running mate, vowing to "do whatever I can" to stop her from choosing a Democratic senator from a state led by a Republican governor.
“If we have a Republican governor in any of those states, the answer is not only no, but hell no and I would do whatever I can, and I think most of my Democratic colleagues here would say the same thing," Reid, D-Nev. said on MSNBC’s “AM Joy” Monday. “I would yell and scream to stop that.”
Should Clinton pick a senator as her running mate and win, he or she would need to step down, allowing that state's governor to temporarily fill the seat. In a Republican-led state, that would surely flip that seat to the GOP -- complicating Reid's goal of bringing the Senate back under Democratic control before he retires at the end of his current term."
