Harry Reid Plays Washington Two Step And Gets Caught

By: Erick Erickson (Diary)  |  September 16th, 2009 at 10:26 PM  | 

RESIZE: AAA

Harry Reid must really be in danger of losing his Senate seat.

Today Harry Reid sent out a press release to the national media praising Senator Baucus for his new proposal on health care reform.

There’s just one problem. And it could be fatal to Harry Reid’s re-election chances in Nevada.

While Reid was praising Baucus to the national press corp, in Nevada he sent out a press release severely critical of the Baucus plan and said it was a raw deal for Nevada.

Harry Reid wants to have it both ways. He can’t.

    Right on the heals of the Rasmussen poll showing him down by 10 to a challenger with only 19% name recognition, 10% being unfavorbale.

    …in the Majority Leader’s office.

    shows 45% have a favorable opinion of their longtime Democratic senator while 54% offer an unfavorable review. Those figures include just 20% with a Very Favorable opinion of Reid while 42% have a Very Unfavorable opinion.

    54% unfav is hard to overcome ever with his millions

    Lets add Danny Tarkanian to the list of conservative candidates. I am not buying this business that only Sue Lowden can beat dingy Reid.

  • proudgop

    any news on him?

    I think our nominee being from Clark County would be best. Only chance has to win is to win huge in Clark county

    It looks like Gibbons won’t be nominee for Gov in NV so that should help us

    and as those who are used to seeing me around know, far too bad of puns for me to pass on making ;-) lol Thanks! I could not resist. But, of course, in all seriousness… we have got to give this clowns opponent as much money as possible to go at him… we’ve got to take our shot!

    The Nevada press release is either a conspiracy or was sent in error. He stands firmly in support of universal health care. That is the change President Obama promised and Reid is solidly behind him.

  • tjexcite

    Sure he can he’s a Democrat…

  • redtillimdead

    However, it seems like most of the national support will go to Lowden or Tarkarnian. I’d be fine with both of these, they are both young conservatives.

  • proudgop

    they both worry me because of their previous run for office and loses

  • buzzyboop

    Apologies to Willie Nelson’s “Crazy”

    at all, he takes pandering to a whole new level.
    The Las Vegas Sun is usually supportive of Dingy Reid, contrary to the Review Journal which is usually highly critical.

    And just how did he get his millions, exactly?

  • smill1953

    who say one thing in English and then the opposite in Arabic.

  • antisocial

    One of them has to be wrong. For even one second I don’t believe he is going against his party’s radical President. We should hold him by the statement that he issued in support of the plan.
