Could it be Brower vs. Reid in 2010?
By Wally EdgeOne Republican insider says that Nevadans should keep an eye on the new United States Attorney, Greg Brower. The 41-year-old former U.S. Navy officer represented parts of Carson City and Washoe County in the State Assembly for two terms, held posts at the U.S. Department of Justice, and was the Inspector General of the Government Printing Office. Brower, who was sworn in as the federal prosecutor last week, could lose his job as early as next January, if Democrats win the White House. Either way, Republicans view Brower as a future statewide candidate – perhaps as a challenger to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid in 2010, or as a potential candidate for Governor if Republican Jim Gibbons doesn’t run again.

"If they really felt that way, they could have responded and said they wanted to reconvene. I couldn't be more frustrated and disappointed. We've been extremely open about what we've done."
--Nevada GOP Executive Director Zac Moyle on the outcry over his cancellation of the state's delegate selection convention after a quorum could not be reached.
