FLASHPOINT:

Nevada not yet decided

Sarah Palin’s visit to Nevada this week — assuming it still occurs Friday, North and South — would seem to belie all that chatter that John McCain has given up on Nevada to focus on more populous red states where he is losing ground. The campaign was active Friday, with a cute “spread the wealth” event at the entrance to the Joe Biden rally, where they handed out free hot dogs. But more and more, the state is looking as if it leans toward Barack Obama, no matter what the overmatched McCain folks do here. There are 100,000-plus more registered Democrats than Republicans in Nevada now. That should be an insurmountable barrier. If it’s not, and McCain wins Nevada, the Democrats will have to go into hiding.
