This week:
Smartest/dumbest moves of the week?
Most interesting thing you have read or heard about Nevada politics this week?
Who has been the best candidate so far this cycle? The worst?
Best campaign so far this cycle? Worst?
So interesting to see the differing views of the insiders on candidates (Laxalt and Rosen, especially). Electoral Ambien, though! That is so….good.
►Amazing: Best Campaign: No on 3. They are on the wrong side of the issue and have a client...

Smartest/dumbest moves of the week?
Most interesting thing you read or heard this week about Nevada politics?
What's your sense: Races breaking for Dems or Kavanaugh saves Repubs? What do people you trust tell you, polls you know about?
What upset is developing that we might not see coming?
What issue is developing in this state that no one -- or too few people -- are paying attention to?
Interesting stuff from the insiders – if upsets are out there,...

This week:
1. Smartest/dumbest moves of the week?
2. Most interesting thing you have read or heard this week?
3. Does the Kavanaugh spectacle, no matter what happens, affect any of these NV races? On a scale of 1-10, how damaging was Heller's "hiccup" remark?
4. One fun one this week: Name the three greatest Nevada leaders of the last quarter-century and tell me why.
5. Who does Trump -- and his visit -- help more in November here -- Dems or Repubs?
The insiders,...

Smartest/dumbest moves of the week?
Most interesting thing you read or heard about Nevada politics this week?
Was it smart strategy for Steve Sisolak to come out against the water grab? Does it mean anything in the race?
Best and worst ads so far?
Any thoughts at all on RGJ poll?
Usual wisdom from the insiders. To wit:
►Best answer of the week on best and worst ads: I watch Netflix.
►Yep: Will be interesting to see what candidates show up for the...

This week’s questions:
Smartest/dumbest moves of the week?
Most interesting thing of the week?
You are in gov and U.S. Senate debates: What would you ask?
Most impressive first-time candidates?
Some savage (those debate questions!) and cynical (everything else) this week:
►Through the looking glass: What world am I living in? Donald Trump’s presidential staff works against his agenda, there’s talk of a legislator bringing a bus full of his prostitutes to use...

Smartest/dumbest moves of the week?
Most interesting thing you read or heard about Nevada politics this week?
Early voting begins seven weeks from Friday: Where are we? What's new? Any pithy observations on major races, Legislature, anything?
Relatively meager response, as I feared on this Labor Day weekend. But what came in was, as usual, excellent insight.
For what it’s worth, my takes:
Sisolak is on TV now, but he took a long time to reload. If it’s...

Odds Sandoval relents and endorses Laxalt, and why?
For fun: What do the following people do if they lose? Laxalt, Heller, Roberson, Rosen, Sisolak.
Some great, funny, brutal stuff from my insiders on what the losers will do; consensus that at most Sandoval does a tepid endorsement of Laxalt. My take: He could do a “I support the GOP ticket”...

This week:
Smartest/dumbest moves of the week?
Most interesting thing you read/heard this week in Nevada politics/government?
Thoughts on the RGJ poll?
Thoughts on the Aaron Ford revelations? How damaging on a scale from flesh wound to fatal?
Insiders believe (as do I) that it’s inconceivable Ford did not get out in front of these revelations easily available to an oppo researcher. Some think (and it’s hard to argue) that he may need a blue wave to win.

3. Does the Guinn Center study change anything on Q3?
4. Who is the person a politician should least want mad at him or her in Nevada? Who are the next two?
Praise for that "spineless senator" ad, skepticism the Guinn Center report will affect much (I think it helps the NO side a lot more.) and Sheldon name-checked as person to be feared...

Your take on the Sisolak-Vermillion-Laxalt-Gentile letter story? Good for Sisolak because sends message or good for Laxalt because raises the issue? Or neither? Your take and feel for that race right now.
Somewhat anemic response from the insiders this week -- I guess insiders take vacations, too! But some good stuff nevefrtheless.
