(The Hill) Simmering tensions between Harry Reid and Tom Daschle are erupting into an all-out feud.
Daschle is expressing frustration with the Senate majority leader (D-Nev.) for refusing to endorse Rick Weiland, a former Daschle aide who is running for the South Dakota seat held by retiring Sen. Tim Johnson (D).
Reid last year declared Weiland was "not my choice" in the race, and this summer added, "We are going to lose in South Dakota, more than likely."

Asked if those comments hurt Weiland’s chances, Daschle told The Hill, "Well, it certainly hasn’t helped."
