The latest opinion polls in Nevada show that Harry Reid's reelection prospects continue to fade even worse for the Senate Majority Leader, the recent trip by President Obama to help the Senator actually cost him some votes.

The latest Mason-Dixon Poll reported that most people were unmoved by the President's visit, but of those who were effected the vast majority said that the Presidential visit made them less likely to vote for Reid.

As far as the overall race, Sue Lowden has emerged as a clear leader among GOP candidates fighting for the chance to run against Reid in November, but the survey shows that Reid would lose to any of expected candidates.

In the high stakes political game of Survivor, Obie and Nancy are about to vote Harry off the island.

Note to Hairy.. Harry, ‘’The war is lost’’ you will be defeated and nobody will buy your book.

“...the recent trip by President Obama to help the Senator actually cost him some votes.”

0 just seems to leave carnage in his wake were ever he goes. But he's too “brilliant” to notice.

LOL! Hope & Change. These people are evil scum and RINO Juan McCain is just behind them in the filth category.

"The latest Mason-Dixon Poll reported that most people were unmoved by the President's visit, but of those who were effected the vast majority said that the Presidential visit made them less likely to vote for Reid."

Is it possible that some Democrats did not turn in their brains without right-of-recall when they were originally transfixed by Obama's smoke screen?

Looks like Harry can count on the “Tea Party” to guarantee his re-election, though....

Harry has a new bribe to his friends in the casino industry & SEIU workers.

Harry Reid strikes again - new bureaucracy & more Aliens-Travel Promotion Act

From the Christian Science Monitor:

“Democrats plan to continue the strategy with a tourism promotion bill, The tourism bill, especially helpful to states such as Nevada, which has been hard hit by a drop-off in visitors, proposes creating a nonprofit corporation to promote travel to the United States and correct “misperceptions about US entry policy” since the 9/11 attacks. It would be financed by an annual assessment of $20 million from the tourism industry and $100 million a year from taxpayers. “

Let’s dissect this, shall we?

“The tourism bill, especially helpful to states such as Nevada, .......

Harry is behind in the polls for his re-election...just buying some votes!

” proposes creating a nonprofit corporation to promote travel to the United States....

Nonprofit? Since when has any government bureaucracy been for profit?? Will this be another cabinet level department? Yet another Czar? ‘non-profits’ will likely be in charge of handling this department....can you say ACORN???

“to promote travel to the United States and correct “misperceptions about US entry policy” since the 9/11 attacks. “

In other words, let ‘em all in! 40% of foreign aliens become visa overstay illegal aliens. Foreign women, even the well to do, come here to drop their anchor babies and then take them home to grow up as “US voting citizens”, where they don’t even have to be here to vote in our elections..... Or they stay here and get the benefits of any US Citizen. This directly effects countries who sponsor terrorism.

“It would be financed by an annual assessment of $20 million from the tourism industry and $100 million a year from taxpayers. “

Tourism industry....that would be Harry’s big donors at the Vegas casino’s. He must keep those big donors happy! $20 million to them is a great investment to get the rich Saudi’s, etc. in their casinos who can’t get here now because they sponsor terrorism. And the employees? Can you say SEIU???

“and $100 million a year from taxpayers. “ That one speaks for itself!

By the way, John McCain gets most of his money from the big casino boys in Vegas. Let’s see if he’s one of the republicans who help Harry out with this dangerous legislation.

Harry is real good at spending other people’s money, isn’t he??

But remember, this is from the guy who says the income tax is ‘voluntary’.

Reid’s son is running for governor of Nevada..wonder if the “name recognition” helps or hurts?

I haven’t checked it out, but I understand that the Tea Party has been registered as a political party in three states - one of ‘em Nevada. They are not a product of the true Tea Party folks, but apparently, in Nevada anyway, they are set up to draw anti-Reid sentiment to split the vote and ensure Harry gets in. If so, he’s living up to the epithet of “Dirty Harry”.
