Found the answer to my own question. It looks as though the VX Nano mouse from logitech is prone to the left click wearing out. Theres a YouTube video showing how to replace the part which you can find in any mouse but it requires soldering and de-soldering so its do-able but not a super easy.
Its sad because this was their top of the line model and retailed around $70 and now they are discontinued and replaced them with the Marathon M705 $4. Sucks for logitech! Good for me cause they are $18 on eBay now and even if it won't last 2+ years its worth it. I bought my vx nano second hand and have been using it for 1 1/2 years so who knows how long this issue takes to develop.
While researching the issue I called logitech and their over-seas customer service guy had no idea why "words wouldn't stay highlighted." He had me hold the left click down and then right click 5 times. When that didn't work he didn't know what to do. I let him know it wasn't a big deal (more a pet peeve) and I was just calling to see if hes heard of the issue. I happily hung up thinking I would just use the shift key as the work around. After I found the help forums on Logitech I learned these mice have a three year warranty! I thought maybe I still had a warranty and I could send it in for repair.
Long story short..I unexpectedly called logitech to see if I had any warranty left. Now this is speculation but because the customer service rep was American and he said he was having a crap day he replaced my mouse with the M705 for free and I didn't have to ship him back anything either! I suspect he wanted to do something nice and this wasn't the protocol for VX Nano issues but I could be wrong.
I'm stilll using my nano and just using shift to highlight cause the M705 is a bit big for my small hands. Still it is great to have a backup/replacement when this ones completely dead. Also good to see Logitech customer service step up to the plate.
That's my story and I'm stickin to it.
