I hope Nevada Democrats have long memories. I know Harry Reid does and I hope he doesn't forget. When New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson, who wants to be president, comes here trolling for votes, remember he went to New Hampshire in August 2006 and obliquely criticized Nevada. According to news reports, Richardson told the New Hampshire folks he had "been by New Hampshire's side all along" and against Nevada's attempt to move before New Hampshire. Richardson talked about his "tremendous respect for New Hampshire and backed efforts at the Democratic National Committee to block what Nevada eventually did. And the guy practically lives next door, too. Never forget.
