Democrats Looking for Candidate in Congressional District #2

An open message to Paul Reeves and Jack Schofield.

I just ran across this Group on Facebook. The group wants to find a Democratic Candidate to run against Dean Heller in District #02. I thought perhaps you both would be interested.

They write:

We need a good, urban Democrat from CD-2 to run against Dean Heller in 2010 and here is why.
Jill Derby was the closest candidate to come to a victory in 2006. In 2000, when Tierney Cahill ran against Jim Gibbons, she received 1700 more votes than Jill Derby did when the percentage of voters per party were approximately the same! We need a good candidate like with the political skill and connection to Nevada like Jill with the story and Reno-Tahoe metro area residence like Tierney.
CD-02 has always been represented by Republicans from the Reno-Tahoe metro (Reno, Sparks, Carson City). Dean Heller is from Carson City, Jim Gibbons from Reno and Barbara Vucanovich from Reno. We need a different strategy if we want to stay competitive. We need an urban Democrat to run for CD-02.
Jill Derby has set the foundation for a good race to be had in 2010 but we need to take another look at the rural strategy.
Prior to Jill Derby running, the last time there was a viable candidate was 1992 with Reno Mayor Pete Sferrazza (41%) running against Barbara Vucanovich (52%).
Jill Derby shows no sign of entering the 2010 race. Cindy Trigg is out. Who is going to step into the ring from the Reno-Tahoe metropolitan area?

Perhaps both of you might like to let them know of your existence.
