In a Huffington Post interview published Tuesday, the leading Democrat said that an unnamed investor with Bain Capital, Romney’s former private equity firm, told Reid in a phone conversation that Romney had not paid taxes for a decade.
Reid stood by the allegations on Thursday while speaking on the Senate floor.
“The word’s out that he hasn’t paid any taxes for 10 years,” he said. “Let him prove he has paid taxes because he hasn’t.”
