Movin’ on Up to the Big Leagues

Our little Dump Reid blog is “graduating” into a full-blown federal political action committee (PAC). The paperwork is in the works, contracts are being signed and DumpReid.com is being retooled for a national campaign. Here’s the inside dope and press release which will go out tomorrow morning….

New Anti-Reid PAC Launched
In-State Activist, Out-of-State Fundraiser Team Up
For Two-Fisted Effort to Knock Out Majority Leader

(Las Vegas, NV) – Former Michigan Republican Party Chairman Saul Anuzis has teamed up with former Nevada Republican Party Executive Director Chuck Muth to form a federal political action committee (PAC) for the purpose of “daschling” Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid in next year’s Nevada U.S. Senate race. The new “Dump Reid PAC” will combine Muth’s in-state network of grassroots activists with Anuzis out-of-state fundraising network for a one-two punch designed to defeat Sen. Reid in the 2010 election.

“Only Nevadans can defeat Harry Reid next year,” said Muth, “but so many of Nevada’s citizens are so afraid of retribution by Reid should they contribute to a challenger candidate that the only way to raise enough money to counter his expected $25 million re-election war-chest is to ask for financial help from outside the state to fund an independent effort. That’s where Saul comes in.”

As a candidate for chairman of the Republican National Committee earlier this year, Anuzis established a nationwide network of donors, both large and small. And he sees replacing the Senate Majority Leader in 2010 as a national priority.

“Harry Reid has merely been neglecting Nevada during his stint as Majority Leader,” Anuzis explains, “but he’s done serious harm to America while leading it down the wrong path during that same time. Not only will Nevada benefit tremendously by dumping Harry Reid, but so will the rest of the country.”

Both Muth and Anuzis believe that any of the major announced or rumored GOP challengers to Reid would have a shot at dethroning the Majority Leader in 2010. The Dump Reid PAC, however, isn’t expected to support any particular Republican candidate in next year’s primary, but will instead focus on communicating to all Nevadans the reasons to send the former amateur boxer from Searchlight to a lucrative lobbying gig on K Street with his old friend Tom Daschle.

The Dump Reid PAC intends to raise money for radio, TV, voter contact mail and an upgraded DumpReid.com website – complete with detailed opposition research on Reid, his failed policies, his conflicts of interest, his land deals, his suspicious wealth and his failure to protect the interests of Nevada while distracted by his national efforts to advance the far-left agenda of MoveOn.org and other liberal special interests.

“Dumping Harry Reid won’t be easy,” Anuzis and Muth agreed. “But nothing worthwhile in life ever is. This is worthwhile, and then some.”
