WASHINGTON -- Investment banker John Chachas, one of the potential Republican challengers to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, got a look in the New York Times today.

The paper describes his underdog bid like this:

“So what does a 44-year-old investment banker do when he wants a new career challenge?

Try a quixotic bid to unseat the Senate majority leader, Harry Reid , Democrat of Nevada.”

The story goes on to note that polls show Reid is trailing two potential Republican candidates.

“But neither of those is Mr. Chachas.”
