FLASHPOINT for Mar 17, 2006
Friday, March 17, 2006 | 7:11 a.m.
This may become a systemic problem for the Republicans if the president's numbers don't gain any buoyancy. A prominent local doctor, Larry Lehrner, received a call this week from an apparatchik of Rep. Tom Reynolds, who runs the National Republican Congressional Committee. "We wanted to recognize you with a national leadership award," the voice mail gushingly told the good doctor and asked him to quickly return the call to learn more about the great honor. Problem is, he is no longer a good Republican. Disgusted with the president, Lehrner, whose wife is Democratic Rep. Shelley Berkley, now can vote for his better half if she ever has a primary. And I doubt the NRCC honors Democrats.
