Reid’s base is Vegas. He gets creamed in the rural areas and smaller towns. His last election was close. Vegas is not the way the rest of Nevada thinks. The Kalifornicators put him in office.

Vegas is not the way the rest of Nevada thinks

I kinda figured as much. As is in many places, in my opinion, the areas with the most pimps, drugs, prostitutes, etc. per capita are the strongest voting block. As we make it easier for people to vote without showing ID or even showing up at the polls, this will probably be even more prevalant.

My criticism of Nevada as a whole, is part of my maybe unrealistic wish that those in the rural and outlying areas will figure out a way to take back Vegas.

Well, maybe the republican who ran against Reid wasn’t a pure, untarnished conservative and “true” conservatives wouldn’t vote for him. I see it’s worked out well for the “true” conservatives.

Well said but I would add that it is Southern Califorians not the Northern. That is why years ago we wanted to split Cal. into 2 staes, Northern and Southern. The high density population in Vegas overrides us up north who hate Reid. He is a total embarrassment for us up North. I lived in Cal. for 45 years and left to go to Nv. because of their gov. but they are all coming over here (nv). Nevada should be slit into 2 states also. Reid and his ilk do NOT represent us up here but we just don’t have the votes.
