Good article in Las Vegas City Life.....
Someone is finally letting voters in CD3 know they have a choice besides Bush-donating former CEO Tom Gallagher:

http://www.lvcitylife.com/articles/2004/08/25/local_news/news04.txt

"George Matthews, DeVoe's campaign director, said supporting a candidate based solely on money prevents the party from running a strong candidate in the general election. It also alienates certain democratic voters.

"Why not vote for the candidate who looks to be the most representative of you?" asked Matthews. "If you vote on that sensibility, you have a shot of getting real change in Washington."

1. I am very disappointed in our local state dem party.
With the exception of Shelley & Oscars's organizations - and these are more because of the individual NOT the party - they almost seem to WANT to lose!

I do not consider Reid a democrat - he says some good things, but as a mormon first, he does not represent the heart of what I want - which is progressive policies and univeral equal rights for everyone. He has been strikingly silent on gay rights, and his tepid responses to things progressive - jumping on thet bandwagon only when an issue is proven popular - is really tiring. His constant praising of bunkerboy instead of just remainin silent will forever haunt my memories.
