Title: Harry Reid's son leaves last name out of first campaign ad

Nevada gubernatorial candidate Rory Reid (D) is on the air with his first campaign ad and it's missing one thing: his last name.

Reid, the son of Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.), doesn't say his name at any point during the ad, but it prominently features his campaign logo, "Rory 2010."

Observers noticed that throughout the gubernatorial primary, Rory Reid seemed to distance himself from his father, who faced high disapproval ratings from voters.

It looks like, for now, Rory Reid is staying with that strategy, although Harry Reid's numbers have been steadily improving and strategists believe Sharron Angle's winning the Republican Senate nomination will help return Sen. Reid to Washington.

Rory Reid's website also neglects to mention his last name on its main banner, which reads "Rory 2010."

The bio section also lacks Rory Reid's last name. It's titled "Meet Rory" and doesn't mention his parents in the paragraph about his personal life. "Rory, 47, grew up in Nevada attending public schools, as do his three great kids. He attended Brigham Young University, graduating with a dual degree in international relations and Spanish, and continued his studies there through law school. He and his wife, Cindy, have been married for 22 years," the bio reads.

It's pretty bad when your son doesn't want to claim you, isn't it Harry?  :lmao:

You know he's a freakin' idiot (the son), when he doesn't even have the sense to deliberately misspell his last name. From Reid to Reed, for example. That way, he could at least claim a typo.

The whole thing is an exercise in idiocy - as if the asswipe isn't going to be outed.   :loser:   :whatever:

IIRC, he'd get nailed to the wall on the typo claim... would be fraud.
