Carson City Democrats

A new Zogby poll asked likely voters the question, whom would you NEVER vote for for President? It's not surprising that Governor Richardson was the most acceptable candidate of either party. Only 34% said they would NOT vote for Richardson. That is in stark contrast to the 50% who responded that they would NEVER vote for New York Senator Hillary Clinton. She's joined by Senator Mike Gravel and Congressman Kucinich at the top of the list of candidates unacceptable to the American electorate.

If the leading Democratic candidate can't even get a majority of Americans to vote for her, shouldn't we be looking somewhere else? A 49% victory doesn't give us the strong Democratic mandate we'll need to repair the damage of the Bush administration. We can't afford another razor thin election; we deserve a crushing victory over the GOP.

This weekend's Sustainable Living and Renewable Energy Roundup in Carson Valley will highlight Nevada's committment to a needed energy revolution. As the Carson Valley focuses its attention on on this great undertaking, it is important to think about where our 2008 Democratic Candidates stand on energy.

Last week, the popular blog DailyKos had a post comparing the energy plans of the top tier Democratic candidates. At the end of the comparison, readers were able to vote for which plan was the best. Governor Richardson beat Edwards by over 100 votes and beat Obama and Clinton by thousands of votes. Read the comparison here

This came just as Richardson released his newest ad. The ad touts his energy plan and notes that the Sierra Club has called it "much more aggressive"
