Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) trails Republican Danny Tarkanian by double digits, according to a new poll released Sunday.

Tarkanian, the former University of Nevada-Las Vegas basketball star and son of the school’s longtime basketball coach, leads Reid 49 percent to 38 percent, with 13 percent undecided.

Prospective challenger Sue Lowden, the state GOP chairwoman, also leads Reid in a head-to-head matchup, 45 percent to 40 percent, with 15 percent undecided.

The poll, conducted Aug. 17 and 18 by Mason-Dixon Polling & Research for the Las Vegas Review-Journal, surveyed 400 Nevada registered voters and had a 6-percentage-point margin of error.

Reid’s favorability ratings remained dangerously low, with 37 percent viewing him favorably compared with 50 percent who viewed the four-term senator unfavorably. In July, the same poll showed 34 percent viewed him favorably and 47 percent viewed him unfavorably.

Well he's pretty much already said he's going to force the healthcare bill on through that he has the votes he needs on paper. If he does it will be the last thing he does in Washington because he will get voted out...people don't mind someone leading but they won't tolerate someone blatantly bullying them and going against their wishes...
"Reid: Teddy's death "going to help us"

The Reno Gazette-Journal has a sit-down with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.), who addresses the Ted Kennedy question in, um, an interesting way.

Q: How will U.S. Sen. (Edward) Kennedy's death affect things?

A: I think it's going to help us. He hasn't been around for some time. We're going to have a new chairman of that committee, it'll be, I don't know for sure, but I think Sen. (Chris) Dodd, (D-Conn.). He has a right to take it. Either him or (U.S. Sen. Tom) Harkin, (D-Iowa), whichever one wants it can have it. I think he (Kennedy) will be a help. He's an inspiration for us. That was the issue of his life and he didn't get it done."

Beings that feed on the dead are called ghouls. Reid fits that description.
