Team Clinton growing nervous about Nevada

"In a poker game, they are what is known as “tells,” some giveaway to what cards a player holds, some sign of whether he has the flush or has a busted hand. As Team Clinton focuses on the state where gambling dominates, their tells are showing.

After spending so much time touting the minority outreach, especially to Latinos, Team Clinton is now repeating the ridiculous and false mantra that Nevada is not so different than Iowa and New Hampshire, two of the whitest states in the union. It’s as if history doesn’t exist.

You know, the history where a guy named Harry Reid went to the Democratic National Committee in 2007 and persuaded key players that Nevada was not just the gateway to the West but to a more diverse place that reflected America’s changing demographics."
