FLASHPOINT for Sep 08, 2007

Saturday, Sept. 8, 2007 | 6:58 a.m.

Is Shelley Berkley the luckiest politician alive? It's not just that the congresswoman has an impregnable district, thanks mostly to the 2001 reapportionment. But look at the roster of folks lining up against her this cycle. State Board of Ed member Greg Nance, who says the main issue is school prayer and who talks slower than any human I have encountered. Ed Hamilton, a Republican rabble-rouser who leaves the longest voice mails in history. But here's the wild card: Could Rep. Dean Heller be switching districts? I have obtained his 2007 statement of candidacy and he lists as his House District: Number 1, which is Berkley's district. A clerical error or a campaign announcement? Maybe Berkley's luck has run out!
