Nevadans know what ails Harry: He put power ahead of the people.

When people hear you're from Reno, they always ask, "What's the deal with Harry Reid? Why does Nevada keep re-electing him?"
The simple answer: Power.
"Power is not only what you have, but what the enemy thinks you have," said Obama's mentor, Saul Alinsky. And therein lies the key to Reid's continued electoral success. Sadly, the "enemy" has been the voters back home.
Nevadans always believed Harry had the power to do great things for Nevada. As Senate Majority Leader, Reid would make sure Nevadans came first in Washington, right?
They don't seem to feel that way anymore, according to more than a year's worth of polls from a variety of sources. Just like his pal President Obama, Harry doesn't seem to understand just how dissatisfied Nevada voters are with the job he's done for Nevada and the nation as a whole.
Reid appears to be suffering from one of the major pitfalls of power. "Power always thinks it has a great soul and vast views beyond the comprehension of the weak." ~ John Adams
The proof is in the pudding, as the saying goes, so here's the proof, in a series of articles from inside Nevada that report and analyze Harry's activities, albeit from the "weak" people's point of view.
