Welcome to the Nevada News Bureau’s political blog. It will be lovingly maintained by me, Elizabeth Crum, a longtime political junkie and the manager/editor of this small but merry band of newsies.
I’d like to begin with a respectful nod to the many talented political bloggers around the state. I look forward to contributing to the conversation in what is shaping up to be a fascinating (and entertaining) year in Nevada politics.
Please stop by often for breaking political news and analysis, links to stories and commentary at other blogs and publications, video and audio goodies, and the occasional amusing anecdote. In addition, you can follow the News Bureau – and me, personally – on Twitter.
That’s it – for the moment.
Thanks for reading and drop me a line (or a hot tip) anytime to: editor@nevadanewsbureau.com
E.
P.S. I invite and encourage feedback in the Comments. Please just keep it civil. We reserve the right to delete comments or ban commenters who cross the line of decency.
Looks like you got the link fixed, E. Best of success with the new blog … meanwhile, here’s another test posting:
(Author unknown) …
“The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the presidency. It will be easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president. The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails us. Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.”
Congrats E! and the rest of your team on the new blog.
Looking forward to reading your take on things.
