Heller loses his cool.

You could almost feel it over the last few weeks.
Sen. Dean Heller, with help from his Rovian friends, has been pounding Rep. Shelley Berkley over her ethics troubles.  And despite her abysmal handling of the issue at times, the congresswoman has kept the race close. Yes, her image has taken a battering, and polls may lag that phenomenon, but this race is still far from over.

So although it was out of character for Heller to resort to hyperventilating hyperbole today by calling Berkley "the most unethical, corrupt person I’ve ever met in my life.” Really? Compared to ex-Sen. John Ensign, whom I think Heller met?

...

I still think Heller is a slight favorite here because of the ethics probe and Berkley’s challenge in Washoe County. But if Mitt Romney continues to falter in Nevada – and Heller scurried away from the GOP nominee today quicker than you can say “47 percent” – and the Democratic turnout machine reaches 2008, or even 2010 effectiveness, this could be a race where a congresswoman under an ethics cloud could win against a previously squeaky clean senator.

And the first debate is one week from today: Bring your popcorn.
