CARSON CITY – The unemployment rate in the Las Vegas area in September climbed to 15 percent, setting a new record for the state.

There were an estimated 145,400 jobless in Southern Nevada -- about 3,000 more than in August, when the rate was 14.7 percent.

WOW. THAT is an eye popping number.

that is probably the final word on unemployment before election day in nevada.  coming on the heels of obama's visit to the state and blathering on and on about saving the world and rescuing the economy makes them both sound like they have been living on the moon for the past year.

you can't buy a campaign commercial this good.

Good thing Dingy Harry single handedly saved the world economy from crashing.
Too bad he couldn't help Vegas though.

Apparently we are not. 

The Cosmopolitan opens December 15, there are SOME jobs, but not enough to help our economy.

With this crappy economy, I'm sure The Cosmo will start laying people off mid-Jan/early February.
