HEADLINE: Republicans Fear Nevada May Slip Away


Conservative activist Chuck Muth has almost single-handedly persuaded Nevada Republicans to move their 2008 presidential caucus to the same day as the Democratic contest.

Asked Monday whether the Republicans are prepared for the enormous expense and organizing work necessary for a successful caucus, Muth said: "Absolutely not."

The state party is nearly broke, Muth said. It lives hand-to-mouth, without even enough funds in reserve to meet the next payroll, he added...

Without an early caucus, Uithoven paints a grim future for Republicans -- one in which Democrats, with the help of an energized base, not only win Nevada in 2008 but also capture the legislature two years later. As the majority party, Democrats could then redraw district boundaries to their advantage during the 2011 session, he said.

5. Muahahahahahahahaha.....
I know...Politico is such a 'glass half empty' rightwing rag.

But the fact that they are broke, the state GOP party, that's the first good news I've heard from that crap site!

6. President Bill Clinton
Won Nevada....Nevada is very winnable for us, but with the right sort of Democrat of course, that being a Centrist Democrat.

Ditto for Montana and Colorado, both won by President Clinton, and again, both very winnable with a Centrist Democrat as our nominee.
