Each Reid Sees the Other as a Problem
According to sources close to Sen. Harry Reid's (D-NV) re-election campaign, the Las Vegas Sun reports that "the gubernatorial ambitions of son Rory Reid, the Clark County Commission chairman, have emerged as a point of considerable hand wringing among advisers who view it as an obstacle to the U.S. Senate majority leader's reelection."

"Expecting Sen. Reid to face a tight reelection race, his advisers see Rory Reid's presence on the 2010 ballot, in the cold calculus of political campaigns, as one in a series of preelection risks. It's a view that some are spreading throughout Nevada political circles."

"Not surprisingly, the talk rankles Rory Reid's camp, which sees the senator's unpopularity as a potential drag on its candidate."

1. Two frail Reids?
I guess it's hard on Reids out in the desert.

3. Maybe it's because they're Mormons living in "Sin City"
Heavenly Father Elohim can't be too happy about that.
