Harry Reid in trouble

A recent poll reveals this, according to a Las Vegas paper: "It's the highest stakes ever for a Nevada election, and former boxer Sen. Harry Reid is on the ropes early. Either Republican Danny Tarkanian or Sue Lowden would knock out Reid in a general election, according to a recent poll of Nevada voters.

The results suggest the Democratic Senate majority leader will have to punch hard and often in order to retain his position as the most accomplished politician in state history, in terms of job status.

Nevadans favored Tarkanian over Reid 49 percent to 38 percent and Lowden over Reid 45 percent to 40 percent, according to the poll." .

Tarkanian? As in Tark the Shark?

As in his son. The very same.

I would like to know why the Republican candidates are showing such strong numbers in the polls. What are the issues that seem to be burying Reid? Is this the same for the Democratic leaders in other states or is this isolated to Nevada?

Comment 1 beat me to it. I wonder if the son would chew on a towel during a close vote. I think Tark got run out of town for having a dirty program....not the kind of lineage you want for someone heading to the corruption capital of the world (I mean D.C., not Vegas). Although, its not fair to judge people by their parents.
