Good morning, everyone. Have to get this done a little quickly this morning because rushing to get up to Northern Nevada for a speech at Tahoe and that U.S....
If ever there were a time capsule dedicated to the dissipation of political discourse, Thursday evening’s Nevada U.S. Senate debate should be a featured item.
The candidates showed a consistent lack of respect for the electorate, leaving one to wonder: Do the voters deserve the disdain? I worry about the answer.
But I fret more about the level of the colloquy in this U.S. Senate race, which is the lowest in all of the ones I have covered since 1986. Yes, it’s worse than Harry Reid and Sharron...
The list below isn't newsworthy in and of itself -- there are few surprises.
But the Culinary union, which will turn out tens of thousands of voters when early voting begins Oct. 20, will send the endorsed candidate matrix to its members, giving them time to reinforce who the leaders support. This could be a powerful tool as the election closes, and it will be interesting to match the list with who wins on Nov. 6.

Debates don’t often matter much in campaigns dominated by television ads that have much greater influence. But as Dean Heller and Shelley Berkley engage in the first of their three confrontations tonight, I think they may have a large impact.
Why?
Because polls out this week indicate that the race is close enough that debates could turn the race one way or the other. Few voters are undecided in the contest – between five and eight percent. But they will determine the winner. These folks have...
In results sure to confuse/infuriate/thrill partisans, the fourth poll on Nevada released this week shows President Obama up by 2 points over Mitt Romney among likely voters and Sen. Dean Heller up 6 points over Rep. Shelley Berkley.
The NBC/Wall Street Journal/Marist survey -- I have posted the entire Nevada poll below -- also shows that among registered voters, Obama is up 7 and Heller is up 4. Registered voters can be more reliable in a presidential year when turnout is 80 percent-plus....
Tonight, from 8 PM to 9 PM, Sen. Dean Heller and Rep. Shelley Berkley will square off in their first debate on public TV, North and South.
If that doesn't excite you enough, here's what to do -- take a swig of your favorite drink every time this happens:
Heller says the word "ethics"
Berkley says the word "Medicare"
Heller says the words "Harry Reid"
Berkley says the words "Big Oil"
Heller says the word "corrupt"
Berkley says the words "Wall Street"
Heller says the words "Obamacare" and "...
R&R Partners and Barrick Gold, two major players in Nevada politics, are holding a unique fundraiser a week from Thursday -- a joint event for a Democratic assemblywoman guaranteed victory and a GOP state senator not on the ballot.
Assemblywoman Debbie Smith and state Sen. Ben Kieckhefer are sure to be key players in their respective caucuses, and these two lobbying powerhouses always have influence in both houses and in both parties. But you almost never see a fundraiser for two lawmakers...

Good morning, everyone. I should be atoning for a lot today -- as usual. But no time for atonement this close to an election! Turns out President Obama loves...
