Former Nevada state Republican Party Chairwoman Sue Lowden has
announced that she will run for the GOP nomination to take on
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) next year. She is now
arguably the biggest name in a race that also includes state Sen.
Mark Amodei and businessman Danny Tarkania. Polling has
consistently showed Reid vulnerable, but Rep. Dean Heller and
former Rep. John Porter both took a pass on the race.
Lowden's only prior electoral experience was holding a state
senate seat -- in a swing district -- for four years. She was
defeated for re-election in 1996. But she has a professional
campaign team and her entry into the race makes it more likely
that Reid will face a serious challenger next fall.
I can't lay claim to having any particular insight into Nevada
politics, but I have think that at this point there are many
Nevadans who would vote for Peter Pan if he was Reid's opponent.

If I'm wrong, correct me please.
I've heard Sue's husband has or had a business connection with
Reid. Therefore, It's possible that she may be simply a red
herring in an attempt to help Reid. Reid has a lot of money to
spread around and he and his cohorts think in theses terms.

The other opponent is Danny Tarkanian, son of UNLV coaching
legend Jerry Tarkanian. I palyed against him as a youth in
basketball and know he was an outstanding student athlete. He has
name recognition in the state and Reid is clearly vulnerable.
