The Candidate That Dares Not Speak His Name

Rory Reid, son of Harry Reid, dropped his last name from his campaign advertising. Bumper stickers, lawn signs all say "Rory -2010". Having an unpopular, weaselly dimbulb for a father doesn't go a long way to help you in a Nevada campaign!

Latest Rasmussen polls show Reid, er, Rory losing to the Republican candidate 33 to 58%.

A new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Likely Voters in the state finds Sandoval receiving 58% of the vote to Reid's 33%. Two percent (2%) prefer some other candidate, while seven percent (7%) are not sure.

Sandoval, a former federal judge and state attorney general, has consistently held a modest lead over Reid, son of Senate House Majority Leader Harry Reid. In surveys dating back to early February, support for Sandoval has ranged from 45% to 58%. In those same surveys, Reid has earned anywhere from 31% to 40% of the vote. Early last month, Sandoval led Reid 52% - 36%.

So, regardless whether or not his (in)famous father is bounced in November, there apparently won't be a second generation of Reids to kick around!
