Victor Chaltiel, a close associate of Gondolier Numero Uno Sheldon Adelson, recently contributed $25,000 to a PAC set up my associates of GOP congressional hopeful Niger Innis.
Adelson has helped Innis at Chaltiel's urging, sources tell me, because Innis and Chaltiel are friends. At the end of the last fundraising quarter, Chaltiel seeded the PAC with $25,000. The New America PAC NV was filed last September by Innis supporters.
The PAC has also funded an ad attacking Innis' primary foe,...
The ads below for Susan Brager, facing ex-state Sen. Mike Schneider, and Mary Beth Scow, confronting disgraced constable John Bonaventura, start Monday.
The positivity overwhelms me.
UPDATE: Missed this but eagle-eyed reader points out Team Sandoval spelled "Nevada" as "Neveda" on his piece. See color cover below.

I kid you not.
What's below is a version of a web ad she has had out for some time. It is a response to this ad from Mark Hutchison.
Yes, that's Hutchison, not "Hutchinson," as the ad below says. Oy.
Also, when you are talking about donations to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, the bete noir of the GOP, you also are playing into the opposition's hands and raising your own negatives, too.

Below is the version...
Not a bad host committee for the ex-captain.
MGM's Denice Miller, ex-Sheriff Jerry Keller and former Clark County Commissioner Chip Maxfield, along with a group of well-known developers and businessmen.
Oh, and the attorney general.
Against the backdrop of a national debate on the minimum wage, a Las Vegas lawyer has sued the state alleging that employers, aided by the state’s labor commissioner, have systematically evaded a requirement of a 2006 constitutional amendment to provide low-income workers with health care.
