Harry Reid's Re-Election Hopes on the Rise in Nevada

At the end of last summer, after all the heated town-hall meetings on health care reform, Senate majority leader Harry Reid was in a meeting with senior staff in his offices on the second floor of the Senate. He was prepping for an interview when an aide raised a concern about the effect Reid's actions might have on his re-election back home — which wasn't going so well. Reid gazed at his staff sitting in a semi-circle in front of him before answering the question. "Look, everyone, I am who I am, and I'm not going to change ... O.K.?" he barked.

Say it isn’t so!

Voters do have awfully short memories. Historical fact!

[bigbob]

“Hopes”....heh heh...

Reality is a different matter, Dingy Harry.

[Chi-townChief]

Let’s Hope Not.

[screaminsunshine]

Time Magazine...that says it all.

[Izzy Dunne]

Time Magazine is not above a little wishful thinking...

[BerniesFriend]

that’s slime magazine for you..actually..if you read the article..he still in a heap of trouble..they are just trying to help him with their one or two readers they have left..

[God luvs America]

the criminal liberal media is grasping at anything and everything....

“Reid still has a long way to go. He remains unpopular in the state, with his favorable-unfavorable numbers hovering at 38%-56% for over a year. He trails Lowden by an average 10 of points and Tarkanian and Angle by 6 points each. If the election were held today against any of these three, Reid would likely lose.”

then again. when you are in the sewer there’s no place to go but up....

[DuncanWaring]

From “Never” to “Not in a million years”?

[Zakeet]

Pure Time Slime!

From the Article: Reid has risen in the polls from lows in the mid-30s in January to the low-40s now, though he still trails all three of his potential opponents.

Reid will win all right, provided the economy does an unprecedented recovery, the Pubbies fail to find a viable candidate, people forget ObamaCare, several hundred thousand illegals flock to Nevada and turn out to vote, and a dozen or so other virtually impossible contingencies come to pass.

Otherwise, the aging Libtard is toast.

I was looking over on Real Clear Politics and those poll numbers seem to be about a month old. It'd be nice to see some more recent results.

Time Magazine, an Obama, Democrat rag that will go the way of Newsweek!!! The biggest farce is the statement about immigration gaining Reid support. This reporter must be smokin funny stuff or drinking too much hooch!!! Reid is toast, come November, as are most Democrats!!!

[Gothmog]

It must be nice to be employed by Time, you get paid while some Reid staffer writes your overly-dramatic sycophantic article for you.

[Fred]

One of Pinky's selling points is that he is 'the most powerful man in Washington' because he is the majority leader.

That is going to change real soon. Both Schumer and Durbin are gunning for the slot, ergo, Schumer and Durbin slow down the money going to Reid for his race.

[J Edgar]

How can this be?
If this total incompetent crook can’t be replaced, then there is absolutely no hope what-so-ever for the future of this country - and that is a big understatement. IMHO

[FreeAtlanta]

He’s insane Jim.

[Nonstatist]

Reid has risen in the polls from lows in the mid-30s in January to the low-40s now

No he hasnt. He's been around 40 forever. He hasnt budged in 6 months even though he has spent millions of dollars on advertising.

He is toast; lightly buttered, served ice cold.

[longtermmemmory]

remember the rest of the world is print dependent.

[dhuynh73]

Yeah, on the rise of being thrown out of office

[kcvl]

It’s TIME magazine. I wouldn’t take anything they print to the bank.
