She's attacking Jack Vergiels again!!! The guy is dead!
Classy Sue.
Ron Paul got 20%. Lowden treated Paulians like crap. What goes around comes around. She's washed up. Just because some New Yorker like Sean Hannity says people should not back a third party, (he can't pronounce "Nevada") doesn't mean people will listen to him. I do commend Mr Hannity for stimulating the economy though. He hired another ghost writer to write him a new book.
She'll get more traction by keeping Gried linked to the bailout while stopping unemployment in the jobs bill he is busy killing.
All Sue Lowdon is telling you is that she's a "reaganomics" major.
"We rich people will need tax breaks so we can expand business and give you poor people jobs."
ABSOLUTE B.S.
I agree with lvcastmac and gmag39.
I also believe this valley needs more people like Jack Vergiels.
Let's be frank here, former beauty queens aren't known for their stunning IQs or mental agility. If businesses want to relo, they'll go to Texas first and not Nevada for obvious reasons. She really needs to buy a clue.

"Tax Breaks for Hiring Illegal Workers"
Oh what a joke of a talking point this is, folks.
The federal government already outlaws illegal immigrants, making this moot. You know what else this bill doesn't ban? Murder, rape and polygamy. Does that mean murder rape and polygamy are suddenly legal? No.
Look, the Democrats in Nevada's state senate could have easily passed some tax reform bills but chose not to. The problem here isn't just one person. Its the entire state legislature, from Titus all the way to Gibbons.
Jack Vergiels was a scumbag, corrupt as the day is long and that's why she beat him.
300% increase for himself he voted for!
Regarding the beauty queen, I'm still waiting for Sue to say she is in favor of world peace.
she telling every1 what they want to hear. why would u give a moral majority speaker of the house. why would give that up. if u v0te that that out. Washington will not even peak at nevada. and we be in even worst situation
Can You believe Sue Lowden and her 'poor immigrant' heritage story in her campaign to be U.S. Senator? She has more brass than a Missouri Saloon's spitoon... Poor Sue she sacrified so much to become with wife of an already rich casino mogul...my,my, my...I really feel sorry for her.
While she claims to be against raising taxes she has no qualms about letting your tax dollars go to support the illegals in this state that fill and utlize our schools, hospitals, health care centers, social services, fill our jails and prisons and STEAL YOUR JOBS working for below scale wages, no benefits, no retirement.
Her TV ad talks about how she has helped create jobs...yes, jobs for more illegals, not high paying jobs for locals who are legal American citizens. DON'T BE FOOLED BY HER SWEET TALK, AND PRETTY FACE. She is a money grabbing, coniving, greedy, two-faced female viper.
As a U.S. Senator she will sink this nation further into debt and increase the load of free-loading illegals who will gladly take your job, any job, for a cup of coffe and a donut...all, at your expense and that of your family. BEWARE OF SUE LOWDEN...BAD NEWS, BAD NEWS, BAD NEW ALL AROUND.

Harry Reid is the Senate majority leader.
No matter what you think of him, his status means he's among the first in line for pork, the financial distribution process that will never ever not be part of our ugly political system. If the state's voters send him packing that would like like cutting off your feet because you don't like your shoes.
Same even with Ensign and the rest of the Nevada delegation. You may not like them, but the longer those people are in DC the more pork they take home. You really should never remove an incumbent since that only means someone from some other state just hops them in line at the trough. If you want an excellent example of longevity in disgusting action, Google Richard Shelby.
The state should have one Rep and one Dem Senator and split up the house seats equally as well. Sad, maybe, but that's just reality and doing that would benefit our state tremendously.
Right...I'm sure she would have liked laying off 1/2 a billion dollars worth of teachers in Nevada after the last legislative session. She must be against education. After all, who would be left to teach? What solutions can she come up with after the fact? Oh, that's right, she doesn't care about State government, she's running for a federal office. Talk about a person being out of touch with her home State before she even gets to Washington...This is dangerous...
Oh, right, she wanted to see Harrah's and MGM Mirage go into bankruptcy... perhaps she could have picked up a couple of casinos on the cheap. She has amazing self-interest.
Did she really make all that money as a news announcer?
look up her voting record during her time in the state legislature. she voted to raise taxes 7 times.
now she's taken the pledge not to every do that again. can we believer her? doubtful.
Perhaps the media should question where Sue's husband , a piano player, got the funds to purchase 2 hotels?
Probably the same place a Hotel bellman got the funds to buy a casino.
Sue Lowden??? The former news anchor??? OMG, is that all we have in LV washed up news anchors???
Jeez Laweez, people we are in trouble!!!
