अनामित म्हणाले...: We need more honesty in our politicians.

Like this promising candidate.; २५/६/१०, ९:४१ AM
Richard Dolan म्हणाले...: Forget his forgetfulness about his own name. He's even scarier looking than his father. Fortunately both of them will be joining the real economy soon enough.; २५/६/१०, ९:४८ AM
Original Mike म्हणाले...: Well, it worked for Hillary!

Oh, wait ...; २५/६/१०, १०:०० AM
Phil 314 म्हणाले...: What's with the kids; २५/६/१०, १०:०३ AM
Scott म्हणाले...: ही टिप्पणी लेखकाना हलविली आहे.; २५/६/१०, १०:१३ AM
AllenS म्हणाले...: It's a good strategy. He might get 52% of the vote. The Alvin Greene Guide to Election Victory.; २५/६/१०, १०:१४ AM
Scott म्हणाले...: Wow. News used to be about reporters writing about things that happened.

Now, you can create news by doing content analysis of a web site! It's cool that Fox News is doing it now. Used to be that this kind of piece would be the exclusive province of the political blogs.

(It's like during the Cold War, when CIA intelligence analysts would Soviet newspapers "between the lines" to extrapolate what was really happening in the Kremlin.); २५/६/१०, १०:१४ AM
Scott म्हणाले...: "...analysts would readSoviet newspapers..."

bleah, can't type today; २५/६/१०, १०:१५ AM
Calypso Facto म्हणाले...: If my last name were "Reid" I wouldn't admit it either.; २५/६/१०, १०:२२ AM
Original Mike म्हणाले...: "If my last name were "Reid" I wouldn't admit it either."

I don't know. You could probably count on 52% of the voters to think you were Lou Reed.; २५/६/१०, १०:२५ AM
gk1 म्हणाले...: Maybe Rory's dad will follow suit and run simply as "Harry"? If I had as miserable a legislative legacy as Reid I'd do the same thing.; २५/६/१०, १०:२६ AM
knox म्हणाले...: Tee hee. Makes me think of this show my son used to watch.; २५/६/१०, १०:३४ AM
Scott M म्हणाले...: I suppose if Madonna, Sting, or, say, Jesus, were running for high political office, they could get away with this.

However, given the current political climate and his surname, I believe this goes squarely into category of "how the fuck stupid do they think we really are?"; २५/६/१०, १०:५३ AM
AllenS म्हणाले...: If Jesus were running for political office, he'd use his full name: Jesus H. Christ. He'd probably let everyone know who dad is.; २५/६/१०, १०:५८ AM
ricpic म्हणाले...: My prediction: Harry Reid's got a lot of markers to call in and he's gonna call in every last one this election. Reid wins a squeaker.; २५/६/१०, १०:५९ AM
Joe म्हणाले...: Is that ad even legal in Nevada? Don't you have to disclose who paid for the ad?; २५/६/१०, १०:५९ AM
ricpic म्हणाले...: What does the H stand for?; २५/६/१०, १०:५९ AM
AllenS म्हणाले...: Wikianswers:

According to the man, the "H" in "Jesus H. Christ" stands for "Himself."

Now the question is, who is the man?; २५/६/१०, ११:०५ AM
AllenS म्हणाले...: ही टिप्पणी लेखकाना हलविली आहे.; २५/६/१०, ११:०६ AM
MadisonMan म्हणाले...: Yes, I think he should have used his father's name heavily so the charge of nepotism could be thrown around.; २५/६/१०, ११:०७ AM
former law student म्हणाले...: When Mitt Romney's mom ran for Senator from Michigan, her billboards just said, "Lenore."

Maybe she didn't want to trade on the immense appeal of her husband, Governor George.

The best name in Michigan politics, of all time, has to be G. Mennen "Soapy" Williams. Yes he was part of the toiletries family.; २५/६/१०, ११:३२ AM
mccullough म्हणाले...: Will his name just appear as Rory on the ballot?; २५/६/१०, ११:४६ AM
bagoh20 म्हणाले...: It would be acceptable if he disagreed with his dad's politics, but he's the same, which makes this the equivalent of a bald-faced lie. Can you lie anymore than about who you are and what you believe in. It admits that you are unpopular and hope voters vote for you by mistake. I love the Democrats' ethics. It makes the rest of us seem honorable no matter what.; २५/६/१०, १२:०७ PM
traditionalguy म्हणाले...: Rory from Searchlight searches for a new Father among sure winning candidates. That would make a great reality TV show like the Batchelor Show.; २५/६/१०, १२:११ PM
Hoosier Daddy म्हणाले...: What kind of name is Rory? Isn't that what you name a pet? And Rory Reid? Did they even try sounding that out before making it official?; २५/६/१०, १२:१७ PM
Hoosier Daddy म्हणाले...: Well since Rory looks like dad gave birth to him, I'd say he'll have a hard time distancing himself from the old man.; २५/६/१०, १२:१९ PM
former law student म्हणाले...: HD has to be old enough to remember Rory Calhoun.; २५/६/१०, १२:२४ PM
Clyde म्हणाले...: Rory? All I can think of is the old Jetsons cartoons with Astro the dog. "Rorry, Rorge!"

Either that or he was supposed to be Kim Jong-Il in Team America: World Police. Somehow, I suspect that after the polls close, Rory will be singing, "I'm So Ronery."; २५/६/१०, १२:३० PM
bagoh20 म्हणाले...: What's funny is that the attempt at hiding his Reidness is backfiring. He has manged to make the connection national news in addition to showing his dishonesty, which I'm sure is genetic.

Epic Fail. Someone needs fired...in addition to Dad. Last time I was in Vegas there were signs and bumper stickers that said "Anyone but Reid". That's a twofer now.; २५/६/१०, १२:४६ PM
Unknown म्हणाले...: It makes him looks as if he's ashamed of dear old Dad.

And he should be.

The only man who has that right wears a mask and rides a big white stallion.; २५/६/१०, १:३५ PM

No love for Kato's boss? Britt Reid rides again!

Wince म्हणाले...: I haven't been this excited since "LAMAR!"; २५/६/१०, ५:१८ PM
Trooper York म्हणाले...: Why would he be ashamed of Robert Reed? I mean he was a great actor and a good guy. And he even spells his name differently.; २६/६/१०, ११:०२ AM
