Flashpoint for Dec. 5, 2005

Nevada Meddler-in-Chief Harry Reid likes a good anointment when he sees one -- or arranges one. So it must have been disquieting for him to learn that the set-up for Ross Miller, son of the ex-governor, to become secretary of state was endangered. Seems Regent Steve Sisolak is buzzing about being the fly in the anointment. So Reid did what any good anointer does when the anointment is threatened: He tried to find another office for Sisolak to run for -- in this case, Congress. But Sisolak, it seems, has no interest in challenging Rep. Jon Porter and told the chief meddler so. Sisolak still isn't ruling out that statewide bid, and he has the money to be a problem for Miller. Any other ideas, senator?
