If U.S. Rep. Joe Heck is sweating his re-election chances, it isn’t showing — even in 115-degree heat.
But if a town hall forum the Nevada Republican held Tuesday evening is any indication, enduring the sweltering heat outside will be easier than balancing on the political tightrope he needs to walk to remain in office after 2014.
Heck, who represents a district that includes about 9,600 more Democrats than Republicans, was peppered with questions about topics from immigration to Social Security....
Among topics that didn’t come up during the event was a recent report by the website BuzzFeed that highlighted racist, sexist and homophobic remarks Heck’s 16-year-old-son, Joey Heck, made on Twitter. Heck apologized for his son’s remarks after the BuzzFeed story ran last month.
Another topic not addressed by audience members were recent revelations about widespread surveillance of Americans’ phone and internet communications by the National Security Agency.

If the audience didn't bring up the issues with Heck's son and the NSA, then why did the reporter put the items in the paper?
A job of a reporter is to report the news, not add things to a news event.
Reporter Benjamin Spillman, I suspect, needs to go back to school and repeat Journalism 101, otherwise, he will end up like this idiot.
