Pat Hickey, Political Pundit
Submitted by Carson Now Reader on Sun, 06/07/2015 - 2:36pm"Republicans own the education issue in Nevada right now. Let's cash in on that ownership!"

Pat Hickey always begins his blog entries with a quote that resonates with the theme, and I've learned from the master. I've become one of Pat's fans, both because he talks more like a human being than a politician (e.g. calling KOH's Dan Mason's Show "right wing" before pretending to correct himself), and because he has an extremely wry sense of humor.
