Dems Expand Playing Field For The House With Nevada Candidate
By Eric Kleefeld - May 1, 2008, 11:42AM

National Dems have just increased their chances at a major House pick-up this Fall, recruiting former Nevada state Senate minority leader and 2006 gubernatorial nominee Dana Titus to run against incumbent Republican Jon Porter in a key swing district.

It's yet another sign that national Dems are successfully using their advantages in fundraising to find more candidates and expand the playing field for the 2008 elections. Titus only narrowly lost her campaign for governor after starting out way behind, and the ethics scandals that have faced the new Governor Jim Gibbons could inspire some buyer's remorse in her favor.

an excellent chance.
