FLASHPOINT for Jul 11, 2007

Wednesday, July 11, 2007 | 7:04 a.m.

It's almost as crazy to start pontificating about next year's elections as it is for people to be talking so much about the presidential race with such intensity. But I am happy to participate in the nuttiness. Ominous signs have surfaced for those in office in Nevada at all levels. A poll taken last month by the national firm of Garin-Hart-Yang found Nevadans have a very different view this summer than they did last summer of how things are going in the state. Last August 50 percent thought the state was going in the right direction and only 37 percent said it was on the wrong track. Now, Yang has found only 39 percent are positive and 45 percent are negative. And if voters are unhappy, guess who they take it out on? Did I mention it is early?
