Bryan used to come up here to Elko every year for the fair, hang out a couple of days, ride in the parade, bet on a few ponies at the fairgrounds, quaff a couple of brews and tell stories. A more down-to-earth guy you'd never meet. Folks in the rurals liked him and his wife just as much as the people in Vegas and Reno. Nevada really misses him, but I have a hunch if he was still in the Senate he'd be ostracized by the Democrats like Joe Leiberman is.
Yeah...Bryan would likely be another Zell Miller type nowadays. Too bad he retired and Dingy Harry stayed.
