Sue Lowden: Stupid Gaffe, But Way Overblown By Liberals

Sue Lowden who is running for senate against Harry Reid and made a stupid comment on the Heidi Harris show last week.
Apparently, in 1981, someone supposedly tried to blow up Harry Reid's car. Harris made a reference to it and Lowden make a comment back and both of them laughed.
The conversation went like this: "Everybody says that maybe there was a rumor, but nobody has been able to verify that actually happened," Harris said, floating a falsehood on the air.
"I've never heard of that, either," Lowden replied."

1981 was a long time ago, especially by Las Vegas standards. The vast majority of people living in Las Vegas now did not in 1981, 28 years ago, so very few people even heard of such a thing.
Lowden was a reporter back then and for her to remember all the stories that happened 28 years ago is practially impossible.
But John L. Smith, a left wing "writer" and columnist for the LVRJ who really doesn't write anything entertaining anymore, apparently thinks Lowden committed the worst act of the half century. Does he remember everything that happened 28 years ago? Does he remember all his newstories he wrote back then? http://www.lvrj.com/news/unlike-political-races-car-bomb-attempts-are-no-laughing-matter-68202782.html
Then you have Jane Ann Morrison, an even more left wing hack from the LVRJ and before Smith column (apparently Smith couldn't come up with anything original this week) also goes ballistic: "So, when I listened to a recording of Lowden yucking it up with radio talk show host Heidi Harris, insisting they had never heard about it, so it never happened, the women sounded callous and stupid." http://www.lvrj.com/news/political-joking-some-car-bombings-are-easier-to-forget-than-others-67906512.html
Like I said before, it was a stupid comment and Lowden didn't even say that much. Reid is pissed about this, but apparently he isn't pissed about the 14% unemployment rate in Nevada.
That being said, I am more concerned about this: "A group of disaffected Republicans says it feels vindicated after a Friday night count of missing ballots from the April 2008 gathering showed three delegates for U.S. Rep. Ron Paul should have been sent to the national convention. Paul supporters said they felt party leaders cheated them out of a place at the national convention when they abruptly recessed the convention before delegate ballots from the state's 2nd Congressional District could be counted. The district was allowed to choose three of the state's 34 delegates to the national convention.
The convention in Reno ended after Paul supporters won a rule change that allowed them to vote Paul delegates to the convention."
Sue Lowden was the GOP chairman and ran the convention. If I remember right, they ended the convention abruptly after the Paul people took over the convention.
Instead of following the rules of the convention, Lowden the the GOP quit and went home. It was disgusting then and it is disgusting now.
And this is how I will remember Sue Lowden. So, If Lowden win the nomination, and I probably would vote for vote for her over Reid, but we will have a choice between 2 politicians who really stink of politics.
