Nevada Democrats Aren't the Smartest Bears In The Woods

You really have to wonder about the Democrat Party of Nevada.
Let's start with President Obama's visit to Las Vegas. Just a couple of weeks ago, Obama trashes Las Vegas, saying you should not come to Las Vegas if you are saving for college, not realizing that a lot of people can do both. A year ago, Obama trashes Las Vegas and we lose convention and business meetings. So what to the Democrats do? They suck up to Obama and say all is forgiven. But they don't realize that Mayor Oscar Goodman isn't even going to meet President Bozo, not to mention the Governor.
So, the are going to party on when Obama comes to town. Are they going to pay homage to their core constituency, the people in West Last Vegas or visit a high school in poverty areas in Las Vegas? Nope, Obama is going to party at the Palms and at the Palm's owner's house and do a fund raiser there and try and raise $1million dollars, which really is not a lot of money by Las Vegas standards. Obama is going to speak at lilly white Green Valley High School, in the richer area of Henderson. Nope, don't go to Canyon Springs, Cheyenne, Desert Pines, Rancho or any other high school with a high percentage of minorities.
So, while Nevada is suffering 13% unemployment with a much higher number not being counted, foreclosures, poverty and a $880 million deficit in state government. Thousands of teachers face a cut in pay and or layoffs. A large hotel and casino just announced they are shutting down with hundreds of workers soon out of work.
But the Democrats including Harry Reid and Obama are going to party down.
Yup, the Democrats are in touch with the common people, aren't they? The Democrats just don't get it.
