	Reid and Kerry spar over party tactics: 3/ 7/ 2005
		Reid and Kerry crossed swords two weeks ago at a closed-door meeting of the Senate Democratic Steering and Coordination Committee with a group of labor leaders, and while accounts vary, there's little doubt that things got tense between the new Senate Democratic leader and the party's 2004 presidential nominee.
		Kerry was unhappy with the posture of the Democrats and told Reid that they needed to be far more aggressive in fighting President Bush, needed to set up what amounted to a perpetual campaign and needed a plan to prevent Bush from seizing the middle ground in the Social Security fight.
		Reid responded that he had set up a campaign-style war room and taken other steps to put the Democrats in fighting mode and made it clear he wasn't going to change course just because Kerry thought something different was needed.

		Kerry said the president broke the promise he made in the 2000 race to ensure science and not politics determined his decision whether to ship waste to Yucca Mountain.
		Kerry said he is concerned about the safety and security of storing the waste 90 miles outside of Las Vegas at a mountain that sits atop the region's major water supply.
		Kerry and Reid recalled how, on was July 12, 1988, Nevada Republican Sen. Chic Hecht was attending a weekly GOP luncheon in the Capitol when a piece of apple lodged in his throat.

		A Kerry rally in Las Vegas Tuesday evening was so flat that one photographer on the press bus said afterward that it reminded him of events Michael Dukakis held in the dying days of his 1988 campaign.
		Reid finally ceded the microphone back to Kerry, only to interrupt him again a couple of minutes later, apparently to remind him about someone he needed to acknowledge on the stage.
		Kerry spoke to a packed public square in downtown Albuquerque Tuesday night, and the place bristled with the excitement of people who know they're at the center of something big.

		Reid, D-Nev., said he kicked off his campaign in January and promised it would be "as good this time as it was bad six years ago...
		Reid offered a strong reaction when the topic was broached: "I don't think Yucca Mountain will happen," he said, and his reasoning behind that belief has nothing to do with the state's historical opposition.
		Reid was also critical of the science that has gone into the project, saying the water tables have proven to change.

		Reid said Bush broke his word to Nevadans when he prematurely authorized the Yucca Mountain site while hundreds of studies were still pending in 2002 despite saying during his presidential campaign that he would use "sound science" to evaluate the project.
		Reid said Kerry's votes on Yucca Mountain were on omnibus spending bills he had to support because they included "tons of stuff" for Massachusetts.

	CNN.com - Kerry assails Bush on planned nuclear waste dump - Aug 10, 2004
		Kerry accused Bush of breaking a promise he made as a presidential candidate in 2000 to oppose the creation of a facility for nuclear waste at Yucca Mountain, about 100 miles northwest of Las Vegas, unless it was scientifically safe.
		While Reid joined Kerry at his Las Vegas event, Ensign issued a statement on behalf of the Bush campaign that accused Kerry of misleading state voters about his opposition to the facility.
		Kerry said the campaign was pointing to "a few procedural votes," but said he has opposed "the real substance" of the plan for a decade.

	Las Vegas SUN: Democratic Party united in opposition to Yucca
		Kerry voted against the project in a key vote in July 2002 that allowed the project to move forward but Ensign said by voting for the 1987 bill, Kerry helped put the state in this situation in the first place.
		Kerry also voted the opposite way Reid did on six other Yucca Mountain provisions, most of which were in Senate appropriation bills, from 1987 to 1997, Ensign said.
		Reid said Bush is in trouble in states he thought he was winning so these new claims are just a way to divert attention.

	In Nevada, Kerry offers his pledge - The Boston Globe
		LAS VEGAS -- John F. Kerry accused President Bush yesterday of breaking a promise made four years ago to Nevadans to oppose storing the nation's nuclear waste in the state, as the Democratic presidential nominee repeated his own opposition in hopes of winning Nevada's five electoral votes in November.
		Kerry proposed leaving and guarding radioactive material at nuclear facilities where it is currently stored until a long-term solution is found.
		Both Reid and Kerry defended the nominee on those votes yesterday, downplaying them as procedural and meaningless, with Reid accusing the Bush camp of trying to cloud the issue in order to obscure the president's record on Yucca Mountain.

		Kerry and Reid said that instead of storing waste at Yucca they would keep it at the nation's 100-plus nuclear reactors.
		Kerry also invoked the legacy of President Franklin Roosevelt's leadership supporting the invention of the atomic bomb, saying, "what we need now is the reverse of that, we need a Manhattan Project that learns how to tame the negative consequences of that power of the atom."
		In a 45-minute give-and-take in which he uncharacteristically read from notes, fumbling somewhat with statistics and quotations from government studies, Kerry sought to broaden the seemingly parochial issue into a symbol of differences between himself and Bush on the environment and science, two mainstays of his campaign.

		That photo-op, in which Reid was essentially pushed aside by Kerry, created a public impression that Kerry was somehow now moving into legislative and political leadership roles.
