I had assessed Krolicki the last time I wrote this column and in the haste to get this out after a delay didn't revisit the race very much beyond my analysis of Reid. Clearly that kills Krolicki's chances, and I've changed the column to reflect that.<BR/><BR/>I stand by my assessment of Reid. As the Las Vegas Review Journal has reported ad nasuem, Reid simply is not well liked in Nevada, at least according to public opinion polls.<BR/><BR/>Titus did indeed run in 2006, not 2008. That was a typo, which I'm sure is obvious by the rest of the column. This is what I get for rushing a column!ARhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01160908302784847352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5375225817278453406.post-32081649766427240072009-01-10T18:15:00.000-05:002009-01-10T18:15:00.000-05:00Republicans have NO bench in NV-03. Their last two state Senators from the Las Vegas are just lost in November and there is nobody else they can run.Mr. Phipshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15491707255642419381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5375225817278453406.post-53606871708794044482009-01-10T15:34:00.000-05:002009-01-10T15:34:00.000-05:00This is a really weird appraisal of Nevada. Among the major problems are the description of Lt. Gov. Krolicki as "seems likely to run and would be a top shelf candidate" that never even MENTIONS his indictment, and the reference to "Reid’s shallow connections with Nevada voters". I don't even know what that means, because it doesn't say. Nevada has high population turnover, but that's true for every politician, not just Reid, who has been elected state legislator, lieutenant governor, and U.S. senator. Some shallow. Oh, and Dina Titus ran for governor in '06, not '08. I wonder if all the state assessments are this valid.<BR/><BR/>Dennis MyersAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
