FLASHPOINT for Sep 23, 2006

So congressional hopeful Jill Derby has to convince a lot of those Republicans and independents in Congressional District 2 that she is one of them. Hence, we have seen that she is a cowgirl and has cowboys singing a song about her. Now let's hope that none of those conservative types in CD2 saw the announcement of what Derby is doing this weekend: Walking with Assemblywoman Sheila Leslie in Reno. Leslie is the kind of lawmaker who might get shot in Elko or Fallon. She is considered perhaps the most liberal member of the lower house - an outspoken defender of programs conservatives love to hate. So mum's the word on this event. Don't let the folks in rural Nevada know.
