that is a margin that has been closed as they were mentioning today, senator harry reid was in a carter the accident, we should talk about him briefly. harry reid's machine that delivered him a victory against sharon engle last time is said to be responsible for delivering the presidency and possibly this senate seat because shelly berkeley was enshrouded in controversy. this is a berkeley-heller ad about berkeley, obama and reid on the scene. >> shelly berkeley is listed in this year's list of most corrupt position. >> she used her office. >> to benefit her husband. >> the political cause and personal financial gain the line is fuzzy. >> cenk: so i'm always amused by these anti-corruption ads that republicans do. not because they're wrong. tess letter in montana takes a tremendous amount of lobbyist money. he's a democrat, and berkeley has these issues. but they constitutional corruption and then turn around and say, she's corrupted. >> she did work on some legislation that benefited her husband, a doctor. but what they've done is found that the runnings has not had traction in the
