AKA Obama - The Republicans' secret weapon

The Republicans' secret weapon

GOPers celebrating Tuesday's Bay State Blowout got more good news Thurs day: President Obama is going to Las Vegas next month to stump for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.

Should Reid start packing?

Think about it: Obama raced to Massachusetts to shore up Democrat Martha Coakley's bid for Ted Kennedy's seat.

As the world knows, unheard-of Republican Scott Brown beat her handily in Tuesday's election.

The prez parachuted into Virginia and New Jersey last year to back Dems for governor of those states. Both lost.

He even jetted off to Copenhagen -- twice: once to snag the 2016 Olympics for Chicago and again to lock up a deal on climate change. Yep: 0-2.

A trend? Well, Las Vegas is a gambling town. How many points will the bookies lop off Reid's odds now? (He's already trailing one GOP challenger by 12 points in the polls and another by 14.)
One thing's for sure: Republicans may soon owe Obama -- big time.
