Good morning, everyone. I believe Harry Reid is constitutionally incapable of raising a white flag. So even after Steve Sisolak’s expected decision to run for governor became clear on Monday evening, Prince Harry still was putting the best face on the vacancy at the top of the ticket in an interview with capital reporters:
Reid said someone else is already lined up to run for the Democrats. But he would not name Nevada’s new challenger to Sandoval---”I’m sure that it will be a respectable...

Good morning, everyone. Happy President’s Day! (I don’t have the day off; do you?) Good to my word, I binge-watched “House of Cards” this weekend, starting with the shocking first episode all the way through the predictable, although satisfying end. The show remains magnetic, but it’s not quite as good as Season 1. Maybe it was a little bit more predictable in spots, despite being more suspenseful in others. It generally has an even more appalling view of journalism than politics, but that’s a...
Good morning, everyone. Happy Valentine’s Day, everybody. Show some love to your loved ones, yourself and, of course, your favorite pundit, who always needs some love. I am headed today to the place I have grown to love, Reno, and a place where love will be showered on me Saturday: the state GOP meeting. The rest of the weekend: “House of Cards” marathon!
Speaking of valentines, there was a lot of love at Southern Highlands last night for departing water czar Pat Mulroy. Dozens of people were...

Good morning, everyone. Lots of reaction already to my POLITICO piece on Sheldon Adelson. Boy, does he evoke strong feelings, as does the subject of web gaming. Put the two together and you get quite the noisemaker.
It is going to be...
Good morning, everyone. Sheldon Adelson’s Coalition to Stop Internet Gaming had its first big media conference call today and all of the ex-politicians he recruited – Wellington Webb, Blanche Lincoln and George Pataki (who is on “Ralston Reports” tomorrow) were “honored” t be there. Honored and----paid, I assume. Nevertheless, they are all honorable men (and a woman). Standard stuff: Loss of jobs, kids losing a fortune, terrorists and money laundering. Apocalypse now.
The most interesting...

Good morning, everyone. This morning, the League of Conservation Voters released its annual scorecard, which showed a lot of love for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (100 percent!). I know how he eschews labels,...
Good morning, everyone. So I went hiking yesterday. Now that you have recovered from your shock, let me tell you that I felt a little like Aron Ralston during parts of the Red Rock excursion, with visions of being stranded out there and how many people would miss me. Right? You would, right? Actually, it was one of those glorious Nevada days that make our Eastern countrymen envious of our climate. And, yes, I am sore.
On safer ground, yesterday premium subscribers learned that Gondolier Numero...
