Republicans, Dems react to Romney's VP pick
Reactions to Mitt Romney's decision to pick Paul Ryan as his vice presidential running mate came in quickly from Republicans, Democrats and groups that support the two parties on Saturday. Take a look at what people in the political arena are saying about Ryan.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid
"By picking Rep. Paul Ryan, Gov. Romney has doubled down on his commitment to gut Social Security and end Medicare as we know it. Romney's choice demonstrates that catering to the tea party and the far-right is more important to him than standing up for the middle class. The months ahead will provide Americans with a clear choice between the Romney-Ryan plan to gut Social Security and Medicare and Democrats' balanced approach to deficit reduction that combines smart spending cuts with asking millionaires and billionaires to pay their fair share. Democrats in the Senate look forward to engaging in that debate."
