OK, we made up the part about the Whig and the Druid. But since everyone who’s even thinking about getting into the Nevada senate race now outpolls Reid, we suspect a Whig and a Druid would also be favored over Reid.
Here’s how Rasmussen reports Reid’s imminent retirement:
Businessman Danny Tarkanian now leads Reid 47% to 39%. Sue Lowden, ex-chairman of the Nevada Republican Party, holds a 45% to 39% lead on the Senate majority leader, while former Assemblywoman Sharron Angle earns 44% of the vote to Reid’s 40%.
Nevada Lieutenant Governor Brian Krolicki, another Republican who is now reportedly considering entering the race, barely edges Reid 44% to 41%. A judge in December dismissed an indictment against Krolicki alleging that he mishandled money while serving as state treasurer. Krolicki charged that the indictment was politically motivated.
And now we bid a fond farewell to the soft spoken Reid with Roy Rogers’ and Dale Evans’ rendition of Happy Trails To You.
As Casey Kasem might have said on American Top 40, “This one’s goin’ out to Harry Reid in Las Vegas, Nevada.”

Reid whips Angle good in November. He'll do a job on her and her crazy positions on national issues.
Reid is going to have his ass and his pension handed to him in November.
I hope someone gets rid of that weakling. Harry Reid is the picture of the weakling Democrat bullied by Republicans over and over again, letting down his constituents and citizens over and over. Screw that guy.
There is a Modern Whig Party, and it's a shame we don't have someone running in Nevada.

We have a state party in Nevada.
