Three new ads hit the airwaves today in the 3rd Congressional District.
One comes out in favor of Republican challenger Joe Heck; two highlight Democratic incumbent Rep. Dina Titus.
Americans for Tax Reform, a conservative group that advocates for lower taxes, is spending $600,000 to stump for Heck. The group began airing an ad that accuses Titus of voting for higher taxes and faults her for supporting the federal stimulus bill.
"Dina Titus does not deserve re-election," the ad says.
Titus is fighting back with two commercials of her own.
The first accuses Heck of supporting bank bailouts, executive bonuses and "the same lax regulations and economic policies that created this mess."
"Senator Heck's just not on our side," the ad says.
The second takes a very different approach. A group of smiling residents surround Titus while individuals praise her for voting to close corporate loopholes, working to protect American jobs and voting to freeze her own pay.
Expect more ads from both candidates in the coming weeks. Campaign committees for both parties plan to spend more than $2 million in media this fall in the district.
Recent polls show Titus leading Heck by a slight margin.
Dina Titus - You too will go the way of Harry Reid in November with you character assassination ads against a good man. The ad is correct Dina, you nor your boy Harry deserve re-election.
Start Packing your bags Dina. Maybe the Las Vegas Sun will have a job for you when you get back although they may be out of business soon.
Comrade gbigs,
Do you work for a living? You post to LV Sun 24/7. Are you on welfare or Social Security or a 12$/hr Republican party hack paid to post drivel?
It's nice that the teabaggers are nominating stellar candidates like Frau Angle (Nutcase - NV), Christine O'Donnell (Deluded - DE) and Joe Miller (Anachronism - AK) for senate races. This paves the way for Senators Reid (D-NV), Coons (D-DE) and McAdams (D-AK) in November.
P.S. Dina Titus will win re-election this November. New slogan; "Democrats - the party of the sane".
'P.S. Dina Titus will win re-election this November. New slogan; "Democrats - the party of the sane".'
How very true, Rob! Now I'll give Heck a little more credit for hiding his crazy lately, but he's now sounding as bad as Angle when he denies young women the HPV/cervical cancer vaccine, denies jobs for people in need of them, denies equal rights for LGBTQ families, and denies help to people trying to save their homes.
Why would we want to ditch someone as smart, as hard working, and as compassionate as Dina Titus for that?
Expect Dems from all over the state to bite the dust.
Nevada is in DIRE straights, thanks to Dems. Like CA, NV needs to dump its dems, and get back to work

Now I understand...
gbigs is from California !
Just remember this about Dina Titus for guys like whiner Jon Ralston who voted for her.
1) She voted for a nearly Trillion Dollar "Stimulus package" that was a miserable failure.
2) She voted for a health care bill that was shoved down everyone's throat after the country told her NO which has now killed the economy.
3) She voted for a business killing "cap and tax" bill that passed the house.

This is another failure that must be voted out of office in November. Perhaps she and Harry can hook up and become editorial writers for the Sun.
This is an act of desperation on behalf of the Democrats. Blame the guy with the tan who has no power. Sorry Dina and Harry - This strategy is a losing one.

FernleyDem-
Of course he is! The vast majority of teabaggers flooding this and other message boards telling us to "dump Reid and Titus!" are either from California or Arizona. I guess the CA tea-nuts aren't too confident about Carly "FAIL-orina" going against Barbara Boxer, and the AZ tea-nuts don't want us to remember their lovely FAIL of a Governor, Jan Brewer.
So instead, they meddle in our politics. Whatever. Wait until we defeat them.
@atdleft
I think this would include bookofdoubt too...
We democrats are desperate because we're not sitting on a bunch of trickle down bail out money. Tax cuts when the rich have the lowest marginal rate since before the last great depression.Lets elect another elitist physician to public office; so we can bargain for treatment with chickens.....thats how a great country operates.... yea thats the ticket !
robwhitetrash:
gbigs is paid surrogate of the republican party.
gbigs cuts and pastes the same meaningless drivel on every political article.
gbigs doesn't have original idea, just gibberish, mumbo-jumbo, and flapdoodle written for gbigs by the republican party nutjobs.
