When is the Sun editorial board going to publish their recs for the ballot questions??

To Marshall and the Sun staff: bravo for a well-done and important expose -- and for elevating the public discourse in the comments section.

Making this kind of data comparable across states is a dream for policy experts. Unfortunately, the hospital & doctors lobbies are even more resistant to federal reforms...

Your attack on Sen. Reid is ridiculous, Future. Did you even read the article above? No member of Congress was allowed to put his/her thumb on the scale.

How much does the RNC pay you Washington-DC people to troll these sites to prejudice Nevada voters?

Great job and thanks, Harry.

Wow. The paid Republican news commenter trolls are out in force this weekend, spreading falsehoods and misplaced venom.

First of all, wasn't the Korean War from 1950-1953? I just googled Reid's bio, and it says that he didn't even graduate from HIGH SCHOOL until 1957. OK, so Reid should've been at war when he was 11 yrs old?

Second, the health care system in this country is screwed up. If we don't do anything, it will get even worse.

Third, the prez and REid and Congress have been working on jobs all along. Um, why don't you try reading the press on this??

Fourth, god speed Nevada, if you pick to have two Republican senators, one with no political capital due his criminal immoral behaviors and the other with the least seniority in a party that is out of power in Congress and the white house. Try reading up on the history behind the "screw Nevada" bill and what happened in South Dakota.

So Senator Reid uses his position as the Senate Majority Leader to put the health bill -- the most important, long-overdue domestic priority in generations -- on the floor of the Senate and move it forward... um, he's doing his JOB. Of course his enemies are going to spin this as something bad. As for me, I WANT him to be using his hard-won power to get things done!

DeMint is a bomb-throwing extreme far-right winger. He makes even some Republicans look like super liberals, so of course he's going to call a pro-life, pro-guns Democrat a "liberal." Meaningless.

Great job on this article, LV Sun.

RebelRon, don't forget also the myriad of campaign workers for all of Reid's opponents. See, gotta look on the bright side. lol

I'm not sure why you guys are so worked up. These new jobs estimates are from the White House economists.

The 33,000 jobs number is FOR TWO YEARS while today's new estimate is for a fraction of the total stimulus bill and only up to this time point.

As for the "PROVE IT" lazy commenter - go to recovery.gov and see for yourself.
