In a new ad airing in Reno, Secretary of State Ross Miller, running for attorney general, shows he understands the potential impact of an attack from an outside group.
The new spot, which you can watch below, has the requisite ominous music as the State Government Leadership Foundation is described, followed by some obnoxious pundit calling the outfit's ad false and then pivoting to Miller's law enforcement endorsements. I'm not sure I would have repeated those images of an apparently cavorting...
3:40 PM, UPDATED BELOW WITH REID AD, TOO:
No one has spoken out more against The Education Initiative than Gov. Brian Sandoval.
He has described the margin tax in terms generally reserved for what the world would look like after nuclear armageddon.
So I find it quite delicious that the Clark County Education Association, in the first ad in the battle for education funding this cycle, uses Sandoval in its pitch. No mention of the margin tax. But it's there, in spirit.

After Mark Hutchison went up on the air with a relatively small buy and a gauzy, positive ad, Sue Lowden is putting an ad on the air reiterating her attack on the state senator for voting to enable Obamacare.
The ad is a distilled version of a one-minute ad Lowden ran earlier before a non-televised Elko debate in that rural county.
It's a FOX buy. I hear inveterate Republican voters watch that station.

►Alliance for America's Future, which had to register, because of that settlement with the SOS.
►Women's Empowerment PAC, which is designed to help female Democratic candidates and run by state Sens. Debbie Smith and Joyce Woodhouse. I read this as a way to get more...
State Sen. Mark Hutchison: Beloved by the most popular elected official in Nevada, fighter against Obamacare, "committed conservative."
So says the lieutenant governor hopeful's first ad, now running on cable stations. This was to be expected. Hutchison is unknown, so the simple strategy is: Boost his name ID, define him (really, he is a conservative!), maybe bait Sue Lowden into spending money, then go after her.
By the way, I had a forensic lip reader look at the spot, and he tells me this is...
