Haunted by his Own Punch-Line (The Rehearsal Studio)

Wed, 27 Aug 2008 14:18:00 GMT

Last January, when it felt as if all of the media were watching (and analyzing to death) what they had decided to label the first serious confrontation between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton in the Nevada primary, Obama made a bold decision for his final move. Addressing voters in Las Vegas, he adopted a genre very familiar to Las Vegas audiences of all stripes, what Nedra Pickler of...

Did Jack Joseph Save Bill Raggio? (Dullard Mush)

noreply@blogger.com (The Anon Guy) — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 12:51:00 GMT

About a week or so before the Nevada primary we received, like everyone else in Reno, the Jack Joseph Coupon Book. The funny thing was, across from a mexican restaurant's free entree coupon was a campaign ad for Bill Raggio! My first thought was "For criminy sakes he is spending boatloads of cash on microtargeting consultants and they come up with dropping $1,000 to share space with...

Nevada Primary Update (Blue Lyon)

Thu, 14 Aug 2008 12:57:36 GMT

First of all, I’ve got to say that I’m less than favorably impressed with the Nevada Secretary of State’s election results web site SilverState08.com. On Tuesday night and even as late as last night there was a disclaimer that the vote percentages were not accurate and advised the reader to look at vote totals instead. [...]

GOP Assembly Incumbents Suffer Bloodletting (Dullard Mush)

noreply@blogger.com (The Anon Guy) — Wed, 13 Aug 2008 05:13:00 GMT

While John Marvel (AD-32) was edged by former assemblyman Don Gustavson, a pair of other Republican assembly incumbents joined him in defeat during Tuesday's Nevada primary. Both Francis Allen (AD-4) and Bob Beers (AD-21) were blown out in their races. With just a few precincts left, Allen is actually in danger of falling to third in her race. Richard McArthur will win with a 20+ point...

Key question dominates upcoming Nevada primary: Does anyone know any of these people? (Las Vegas Gleaner)

Thu, 31 Jul 2008 16:20:20 GMT

If you're like the Gleaner, then in addition to sometimes wondering if you can just keep ignoring the emergency brake light which is always on in the Gleanermobile, you're also absolutely clueless about who to vote for in all those non-partisan races for judges and such that are on the primary ballot. That's assuming you knew there was a primary. Which apparently there is. On Aug. 12....

Barack Obama, Carson City, January 14, 2008. (Random Thoughts from Reno)

noreply@blogger.com (Susan) — Mon, 09 Jun 2008 22:06:00 GMT

From my Nevada caucus video archives is Barack Obama's speech and town hall meeting held at the Carson City Community Center on January 14, 2008, just a few days before the Nevada caucus. While there is a little bit of camera jumble because I was taking still pictures, there is a lot of good footage of the senator as he noticed I had a camcorder. From part 2 on this is evident,...

With Nevada's primary season upon us and a presidential battleground general election looming in November it is safe to say that if you are a registered voter there is a good chance your phone will be ringing a lot.

Nevada Caucus Scrapbook Vol. 2, Part 1 (Random Thoughts from Reno)

noreply@blogger.com (Susan) — Mon, 19 May 2008 14:26:00 GMT

This is the second volume of scrapbooks of the Nevada Caucus campaign, Reno version. I should note I saw Barack Obama twice, the first time last spring, but I didn't get any decent pictures of him (though I got his speech then as well as the one in January on video). I saw Hillary Clinton a grand total of four times, but the last appearances she made (the day before the caucus and two...
