Sen. Ted Cruz continues to live rent-free in Harry Reid’s head … and it’s a beautiful thing.<\/p>\n

After calling Cruz a “schoolyard bully”<\/a> yesterday, Harry’s doubling down on the foot-stompery, pathetically pulling rank to remind everyone that Cruz is a junior senator — a “very junior senator”:<\/p>\n\n\n

Sen Reid: “We’ve heard a lot from the very junior senator from Texas.”<\/p>\n

Yet somehow the kid is also a “bully” RT @nielslesniewski<\/a>: Sen Reid again calls Sen. Cruz the “very junior senator from Texas”<\/p>\n

Hey @harryreid<\/a> so in your own words you’re getting schooled by a “very junior” “schoolyard bully.” Man, a few rough days for you huh?<\/p>\n

— Whitney Neal (@WhitneyNeal) May 7, 2013<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

No kidding.<\/p>\n\n\n

Earlier today, Ted Cruz stopped Harry Reid in the Senate hallway and took his lunch money.<\/p>\n

Also, his dignity. RT @exjon<\/a>: Earlier today, Ted Cruz stopped Harry Reid in the Senate hallway and took his lunch money.<\/p>\n

Harry Reid has a low standard for calling people “bullies.” One time, Stephen Hawking gave him a swirlie.<\/p>\n

— Jon Gabriel (@ExJon) May 7, 2013<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

Heh. It’s just no fun being Harry Reid.<\/p>\n\n\n

@whitneyneal<\/a> @alexpappas<\/a> Reid is obviously intimidated by him and does not like it!<\/p>\n

— Gil DeStefano (@Gdestefano95) May 7, 2013<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

He should feel intimated. After all:<\/p>\n\n\n

@amandacarpenter<\/a> @toddzwillich<\/a> Many people would prefer a “very junior” Sen. over a “suspiciously motivated” Senator.<\/p>\n
