It's all about getting him re-elected:
As the Senate prepares to vote on a nearly $800 billion stimulus package, a prominent Democratic group is set to begin a new advertising campaign praising Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) in his home state.Give 'em ... um, something, anything, Harry!
Americans United for Change is spending $50,000 to run the 30-second spot thanking Reid for his work nearly two years before he faces what could be a tough re-election bid. [...]
The ads could be an early boost to Reid, whose recently low approval ratings make him perhaps the most endangered Democrat facing re-election next year. The spots will launch on Sunday in the Las Vegas and Reno markets.
It's the liberal group's second foray into the Silver State this year. An earlier radio ad pressured Sen. John Ensign (R-Nev.) to vote for the stimulus package after conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh said the package was doomed to failure.
