How Long Will He Hang On
One of the funniest things about this senatorial race here in Nevada, is that Jack Carter, son of former President Jimmy Carter, has set up shop to run against incumbent Senator John Ensign. Nevadans being the political beasts they are looked on this with a dubious eye.
Needless to say that the muck was raked thick and odiferous, and when the stink clears tonight, Jack Carter will be sent home with a loss. He is an interloper in a land that plays very hardball politics. A carpet bagger of the truest stripe. In fact he said, and this is a direct quote, “Certainly I’m a carpet bagger, but I want to be your carpet bagger.” That says it all.
He was a man that bought a condo in Nevada to establish residence. I wonder just how much he likes Nevada when all is said and done. I wonder just how long he will stick around before the condo is sold and he moves back to Georgia or the Bahamas. I would say that his condo will be up for sale within 30 days, and he will be gone within 2 weeks.
So, I challenge the Review Journal to monitor Mr. Carters moves. If he is gone as quickly as I feel he will be, that will tell you just how much he loves Nevada and how correct the choice for John Ensign was.
