And the Harry Reid backed ride to Victorville looses in a landslide.
I wonder why?...................
Perhaps Harry Reid will look at these results and think twice before throwing his support behind the DesertXpress for campaign fundraising.
I will support the one that has the optimal pay back schedule...please let me know, Mr. Sun...
Mr. Sun, you just lauded the government for borrowing $12,000,000,000 from the Chinese and burdening my great-grandchildren to repay, what are you going to do next?...COOL, you're going to DISNEYLAND aboard the new maglev...COOL...
For $12 billion dollars you could build between 1,000 and 1,500 miles of 4 lane highway that would carry far more traffic and reduce far more congestion than the Mag Lev ever could.
These results, btw, are not scientific so it should not be relied upon as a true sampling of public opinion in Nevada. This poll is just for fun.
If it's just going to Victorville... Might as well drive.
Victorville!?! I guess it would make it a hellofa lot easier to get more meth to Vegas. lol
