Sue Lowden - cheater, liar, fixer, incompetent GOP chairperson, former Reid financial supporter.

John Chachas - New York City resident & registered NY voter. Wants to become another Wall Street owned senator. Has raised the most money of all candidates (from Goldman Sachs and other Wall Street firms). Polling 1% but plans to buy his seat. Donated $2300 to Obama presidential campaign.

Sharron Angle - 100% solid conservative voting record in State Assembly. Author of property tax limitation initiative. Nevada's leading tax fighter. No donations to liberals! Gaining rapidly in polls. Is as honest and fair as Lowden is corrupt and vote fixer.

Greg wrote on November 20, 2009 05:22 PM: Some Republican leadership (far right, not necessarily those espousing fiscal restraint) and most far right media pundits and book salesmen are fundamentally playing and "conning" to America's Christian heritage and culture, but in fact using New Testament teachings to create Old Testament persons, national leadership and outcomes.

That statement is complex and begs a much longer discussion, perhaps in book form. But on it's face, it's true. And the higher truth is most Americans believe and live under the New Covenant, the New Testament.

The missapproporation of Christian values to public policy and foreign policy is a dangerous path to follow, and one which is especially hard on the bottom, say, 75 percent of American society. It creates an anything but humble narcism and and sense of entitlement at the top of society, and a false sense of security that wealth and power provide unfailing security an personal fulfillment.

To equate that broad and diverse label of "christianity" (lower case intentional) with morality is a joke to anyone who has ever read a history book.

Speaking of which, cadusha, those christian founders were the same bigots who wiped out aboriginal people, and drowned alleged witches in the name of their own righteous god. You might also want to consider that Bernie Madoff made payroll every week for years. (And if you are making payroll every week, you should pay someone who can spell substandard). So to put it in your own parlance, and that of most 10 year old, you shut up.

Finally, Too many Rinos, there's no suggestion of embezzlement. But I will suggest that until you've really read the financials for the families holdings, the ignorance is yours. You said yourself that you don't follow the companies.

I don't follow Lowden's casino. Unless you're accusing her of embezzlement, your comment reveals a great deal of economic ignorance.

The problem with Sue is that she supports BIG government -- at least ~50% of it (K-16). Sue must have donated money to LVA, as CCSD put her name on a building there. Which part of big government does Sue oppose -- the Dairy Commission?

Justin Thyme when you own your own company and are able to make a payroll you have the right to say something about this until then shut up. By the way how do you know they got substanderd wages?

At least if we had a "Christian theocracy" there would be some moral compass.

Please spare me with your predictable emotional and baseless comebacks depicting certain religious leaders in compromising situations.

I'm not saying Christians aren't humans, I'm saying that running an organization with no moral foundation produces disturbing results.

Angry@Lies wrote on November 20, 2009 01:59 PM: What Justin said. No bailout, just a sell-out.

"secular progressives"? So Robin wants a Christian theocracy? ... We have enough embarassing politicians in NV, so Robin please shut up about the role of religion in government. There should be NONE!

Justin Thyme wrote on November 20, 2009 01:03 PM: "Lowden said she and her husband "have met payroll for thousands of employees. ... We were able to do that without a bailout."

I guess it's easy to make payroll when you've got everybody on substandard wages.

Of course they didn't need a bailout, their companies use stockholder money to pay their bills, while they just skim from that. I guess it wasn't "a bailout" when Station Casinos bought the Santa Fe because Lowden couldn't make any money on it.......
