CORRECTION ALERT: Due to old age and the onset of CRS (Can’t Remember, uh, Stuff), I inadvertently wrote in a press release yesterday that Joe Heck is running for Congress in Nevada’s First congressional district.

If John Ensign REALLY Wanted to Become Better
Scandal-ridden Sen. John Ensign again blew off calls for his resignation yesterday, telling the Las Vegas Review-Journal that he has “learned a great deal from this and I am trying to become a better person, a better husband, a better father, a better friend and a better senator.” Ensign later added, “I am trying to […]
As the Ensign Turns
While Rep. Dean Heller, Nevada Republican, wouldn’t actually use the “Resign!’ word, he pretty much said “Resign!” in his comments about embattled Sen. John Ensign, Nevada Republican, this week. He said as much to Jon Ralston on “Face-to-Face” Wednesday. “You think (the ongoing Ensign investigations are) hurting the state, the effectiveness of the delegation to […]
Nevada John and the Temple of Boom
Sen. John Ensign, Nevada Republican, now resembles the political equivalent of a suicide bomber. The explosive he has wrapped around skivvies is what appears to be an inevitable indictment over his cover-up efforts of his under-the-covers romp with a woman not his wife.

The Hunt for a New Nevada GOP Chief
(Chuck Muth) – With the resignation of Chris Comfort as chairman of the Nevada Republican Party – or as he “rebranded” it, the Republican Party of Nevada (brilliant!) – the GOP needs to find and elect a new chief at its May 15th meeting in Reno. Who will be the sacrificial lamb?
Muth’s Truths: April 3, 2010
Biggest….crowd….ever. Last night’s First Friday Happy Hour at Stoney’s featuring J.D. Hayworth, the conservative former congressman running against John McCain-Feingold in Arizona, easily shattered all FF attendance records, perhaps as many as 500 people. And I suspect next month’s crowd will be even bigger….as we have tentatively schedule not one, but two conservative mega-stars. Who […]
