So, effectively, he’ll kick the Reid Machine into gear for the NV primrary, but is going to keep us in suspense about who he’s chosen...

Come on.  We all know he's backing Warren.  He lobbied top Clinton campaign officials -- ncluding Bill -- on making Elizabeth Warren Hillary's running mate.  https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2020-election/cold-call-someone-she-never-met-changed-elizabeth-warren-s-n1057926

Oh totally, I was more being rhetorical than anything else. He praises her in any interview he gives:

Reid doesn't endorse, he just wins you the NV primary, and strongarms you a fistfull of endorsements.

Ah, gotcha.  Sorry I misread your tone.

I'll say that, in my mind, Reid is second only to Pelosi in terms of political insight and talent.  If he backs Warren, that itself is enough to get me on board the Warren bandwagon. 

No worries, easily done.

And yeah, it's going to be fascinating to see whether Reid can pull Warren into first place. She seems to be within the margin of error at the moment, just behind Biden and Sanders.

Given that both of Nevada's US senators have received some pretty hefty help from Reid to win some close elections, I wonder whether either will work with him to roll out an endorsement closer to the time, or whether they stay 'neutral', like Reid claims to be.
