Republicans Target Reid

Marking him as a ripe target in the 2010 election cycle, the Republican Party in Nevada have already started running ads against Harry Reid, the Democratic leader in the U.S. Senate.

I think this guy is vulnerable, but not because of GOP complaints that he backs the bail out and economic stimulus packages (Nevada went overwhelmingly for Obama in November, so voters there expect what's coming in those bills). Reid is vulnerable because he's the king of capitulation. This man has absolutely no cajones (Joe Lieberman, anyone?). If the Democrats want to save this seat in 2010, they'd do well to draft a primary challenger with balls of steel.

And I'd be all for it. Reid is a sorry, hapless sap.
