Dean Heller (R-NV) is also a co-sponsor of the Obamacare Repeal. This means he is toast in 2018.

How badly does Heller-R lose re-election in 2018?
landslide margin like Kirk-IL in 2016?
narrow margin like Ayotte-NH in 2016?
somewhere in between?

1. I do not believe anything should be assumed as a given

[Awsi Dooger]

13. Certainly not a Nevada midterm

I lived in Las Vegas for 25 years. The cow counties show up during midterms while Clark County is not as dependable as during presidential years.

I would expect a result within 2% either way

[Wellstone ruled]

2. Heller is just carrying water for

his mentor,Sheldon Adelson and Steve Wynn. This repeal would add millions per month to their bottom line. Yes there are others here in Nevada that have a piece of Heller's sorry ass,but not to the extent of the Casino Crooks.

Heller is he loses,Sandavol will appoint him to some board or commission paying 250k plus expenses. Pretty much how Republican Politics works here in the South west.

3. Sandoval is term limited in 2018. He won't be Governor after 2018.

Heller is just hoping a Republican wins the 2018 NV Governors Races.

[Wellstone ruled]

6. Remember,Sandoval

is Governor till early January of 2019. Seen this movie before,take care of business before they change the locks.

7. Is the board of commission position in NV that Heller is hoping to get appointed to a lifetime?

[Wellstone ruled]

11. Living in the Southwest for quite some time.

Amazing how Arizona,Utah and Nevada take care of their ousted Republicans. Nevada he will most likely pull a 186k spot on the Las Vegas Visitor and Convention Board,which is pretty much Adelson and Wynn operation. Oh,then there is the Gambling Commission,which is a plum job. How about a Board of Director job,he won't have to worry about making a living like the other 3 million people living in the valley.

4. No, he will be reelected for the same reason the Donald was...

Americans are apathetic idiots that do not care about anything until it effects them personally. The majority of citizens DO NOT CARE! They are complacent to allow the rich steal from the poor as long as Starbucks doesn't screw up their Pumpkin Latte order.

8. I guess we should all just commit suicide, then...

It is hopeless.

[BigmanPigman]

9. That sums it up pretty much as far as the very ill and poor are concerned.

But don't forget Hillary's e mails! Now THAT is a real crime!

[virtualobserver]

15. all I can say is that every time that I was ready to give up on the American public....

they have always redeemed themselves.

12. "Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?" :) n/m

[virtualobserver]

16. you make a good point......

Rita: You think Einstein walked around thinkin' everyone was a bunch of dumb shits?
Pvt. Joe Bauers: Yeah... Hadn't thought of that.
Rita: Now you know why he built that bomb.

10. That May Not Necessarily Happen

After the chicken lady (Loudon?) was humiliated out of the race, Sharon "Obtuse" Angle became the rethug candidate against Harry Reid. The rest is history for our amusement. That woman would be confused by a crack in the sidewalk.

Heller just doesn't have enough kick-ass in him. Danny Tarkanian could primary him from the right and make a bigger idiot out of himself in the process. Jackie Rosen or Dina Titus will make mincemeat out of him while he stands there doing his Ben Carson impersonation.

The only NV rethug I'm scared of winning Heller's seat is Joe Heck. He hasn't said he was going to run (yet), but he is everything reichwingers like: a doctor, a general in the national guard, stoneface serious, and with name recognition from being in the House.

5. From what I know, a solid Dem will run against him.

Given he is an incumbent I say narrow to middle level loss, if the Dem runs a solid race, could be bigger.

[BainsBane]

14. No, it doesn't mean he is toast in 2018

I remember people saying that about Kay Hagen. It didn't turn out to be true.
