Harry Reid's Son Drops Reid Name from His Ad

Talk about putting some distance...

Rory Reid, the son of Senate majority leader Harry Reid, has been careful to distance himself from his unpopular father in his campaign to be Nevada's next governor.

In his first campaign advertisement, he omits all mention of his last name and opts instead to encourage voters to support "Rory."

The biography section of Rory's website also does not mention that he is Reid's son. The banner at the top of the site simply says "Rory 2010."

Rory's ad asks voters if politicians always have the highest ethical standards and put Nevada first. He can't be talking about his father Harry Reid.
