Lowden: "I don't think I can beat Heller"


Former Nevada GOP chair Sue Lowden said she would only consider a 2012 Senate race if Sen. John Ensign bowed out and Rep. Dean Heller decided against a run.

Asked on MSNBC's Hardball Friday evening about her prospects in a GOP primary, Lowden candidly responded, "I don't think I can beat Heller."

A Public Policy Polling survey out this week found that 59 percent of Nevadans don't think Ensign should seek a third term, even though he's signaled he's running.

While Heller is unknown to a significant amount of voters, PPP finds the third-term congressman leading all Democratic comers.

During the interview with Chris Matthews, Lowden said she hoped the right-wing had not made it impossible for a "regular Republican" to run and win.

She also acknowledged that "this whole tea party thing . . . caught me through a loop."

Glad to see Lowden coming to her senses that she should not run again. Also, I hope Danny Tarkanian enters the race in 2012! It is unfortunate Angle came out of no where within the last month of the primary and took a lot of Tarkania support. If he were the 2010 nominee, I guarantee he would have defeated Reid by double digitis. Angle and Lowden are both jokes, and it is unfortunate they helped Reid reclaim his seat in 2010.

Isn't Tarkanian bad on a couple issues?

He is favourable for a lot of things, though, and he could definitely win.

Tarkanian isn't very conservative, but he made it clear in the primary he would support Angle if she won.

Ron Paul Crowd Sends Condolences to Sue Lowden

LAS VEGAS, 6/15/2010—Supporters of former presidential candidate Ron Paul delivered condolences to Sue Lowden's Las Vegas office yesterday regarding her recent loss in the Republican Senatorial primary. Along with a tongue-in-cheek '"sympathy" card, they sent Mrs. Lowden a copy of the U.S. Constitution and "Robert's Rules of Order". Signers of the card include Dr. Wayne Terhune, and Oath Keepers founder Stewart Rhodes, who was a delegate to the Nevada Republican 2008 convention and a member of the platform committee, as well as numerous other delegates.

"The American people are tired of fake conservatives and corrupt politicians, and that's not just the Ron Paul people, it's the grass roots, salt-of-the-earth Constitutionalists of all kinds across the nation," said Stewart Rhodes. Dr. Wayne Terhune, who organized the delegate-run convention held in June 2008, said, "Even though it's too late to send the correct delegates to the convention in Minneapolis, Mrs. Lowden's defeat is just. As Senator Beers found out, the actions they took at the April 2008 convention have received their just reward."

The Nevada Republican 2008 Convention was illegally and abruptly adjourned (when it appeared Ron Paul was about to win the majority of delegates) on April 26, 2008, and never reconvened. The ballots cast during the convention were locked up in the Peppermill Hotel Casino in Reno and not counted until over a year later. Despite an appeal to the RNC Committee on Contests, delegates from Nevada were appointed by the RNC. As noted by Marc Thiessen in last Wednesday's (6/9/10) Washington Post, Sue Lowden's actions probably have cost her the election. "Sue Lowden's betrayal of the Ron Paulians at the NV State Convention was the deciding factor in her defeat for the Republican primary nomination," said Dave Freeman, Oath Keepers Nevada President and National Liaison to Peace Officers, who was also a delegate to the Nevada Republican Convention in 2008. "It was a serious miscalculation on her part and it cost all the old guard Republicans their positions as well."

"Sue Lowden is merely reaping the whirlwind, and this is only the beginning," Rhodes added. "Hopefully our political leaders in the future will remember what happened, and will act honorably. Sue Lowden's unlimited funds couldn't buy this race. There's no price on integrity."

Tarkanian is basically a paleo conservative. He supported withdrawing from Iraq and Afghanistan, which was why I wanted him to win rather than Angle.

Sue Lowden will never win in Nevada again. The carpet-gabbing Jerseyite should stay in her real estate PONZI racket.

Las Vegas Libera/Socialist transplants have destroyed the Silver state, well, the FEDS have too. Next on the agenda to route out, carpet bagging and Plastic Surgery Nightmare from New York City, Congressman Shelley Berkley.
