Sandoval to voters: Register Republican and save the world!

Or words to that effect.

The state GOP gave up on same-day caucus registration to try to cut into the 65,000-voter Democratic Party edge. That seemed dumb. But now the party folks have unveiled their secret weapon: Gov. Brian Sandoval, who is urging folks in a "Dear Fellow Nevadan" letter to register Republican.

The letter, saying "It's a New Day in Nevada," contains the most tepid, boiler-plate rhetoric that seems unlikely to persuade anyone to register Republican. (It's also going to GOP households, too, which seems redundant.) All it really has going for it: The governor's smiling face and the goodwill that radiates.

Maybe that will be enough, Democrats. He sure is friendlier than Harry Reid.

You can see the mailer at right in three parts.
