twitterFLASHPOINT for Nov 14, 2006
Tuesday, Nov. 14, 2006 | 7:38 a.m.
No one has really focused on this yet but the fact that the new governor is from the dreaded North is going to become more apparent. Reno's Jim Gibbons has announced the core of his leadership team and they are all Northerners - Chief of Staff Mike Dayton used to work for Bill Raggio, Deputy Chief of Staff Dianne Cornwall used to be a Washoe County commissioner and Press Secretary Brent Boynton used to work for Reno TV. What's more, two of the new governor's top advisers, Scott Craigie and Jim Denton, are northerners, too. I guess we have to count on major donors such as MGM MIRAGE's Terry Lanni, who sometimes lives in Las Vegas, and spinmeister Sig Rogich to represent the South's interests.
