Completely ridiculous...that's like saying a Bishop owes nothing to the Pope, they are all part of the same system.
“He owes nothing to the Pelosi/Reid duo.”
I stand by this. He made it without them. He can chart a course of his own. Pelosi and Reid are abominations of power and narcissism.
The dynamics of this will be interesting to watch. He needs to think of his legacy in every move he makes. Pelosi and Reid are no more than frothing at the mouth rabble. He can rise above this. I think he will.
