Sharron Angle, still decoupled from reality

AP, via HuffPost:




LAS VEGAS — Republican Sharron Angle says she was shocked by her Nov. 2 loss to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, but in looking forward has "lots of options" to weigh as she decides her next political step.

"I will always be involved in politics. I have a lot of options next cycle," Angle told the Lahontan Valley News. "Lots of options."

Nevada's other U.S. Senate seat is up in 2012 and as many as four congressional seats could be in play by then. Angle, a former state representative, said she also could seek a term in the Nevada Senate.

A favorite of the tea party, Angle has stayed mostly out of the public arena since her loss to Reid, and the interview Saturday with the newspaper was her first since then with northern Nevada media.

Angle told the newspaper she was shocked to have lost to Reid after some polls showed her leading in the weeks leading up to the race. Angle fared much better rural areas than urban ones and had harsh words for voters in the bigger cities of Las Vegas and Reno. ...........(more)

and always will be. I can't believe the people of NV even elected her to ANY OFFICE!

And it wasn't even close.

Don

then it was Angle. However, the LV models built in incredibly strong Republican turnout and weak Democratic turn out. Reid's GOTV was very very good.

Time to roll out those 2nd Amendment remedies, Ms. Angle? :eyes:

In fact, it's totally the opposite.

She finds more support among the LESS educated, like all Republicans.

They will use every trick to hang it up as long as they can, everytime.

Remember John Kerry?

The John Kerry, who two weeks after a devastating loss sent a heartfelt message thanking everyone for all they did and begging them to stay involved and to try to build on what they had done in the campaign. He called on people to become active in their local parties and to work hard to turn the country around in 2006.

The John Kerry, who about two weeks later was back working in the Senate - no month and half after the last primary was over absence.

The John Kerry, who led a filibuster, against the wishes of the party leadership, against Alito, who was and is far out of the mainstream. Kerry fought against him because he believed in a unitary President, and because he always sided with corporations over people - not just because he was prolife = as any Bush nominee would be.

The John Kerry, who with Russ Feingold, bucked the party leadership not wanting a Democratic plan for Iraq, by putting out the thoughtful Kerry/Feingold proposal.

The John Kerry, who took to the Senate floor, when the Rosa Parks bill was debated, to speak of all the ways that the vote had been suppressed in 2004 - and spoke of the problems with some voting machines.

The John Kerry, who raised $14 million for 2006 candidates.

The John Kerry, who is STILL working hard in the Senate on important issues.


Frankly, THAT is what not giving up trying to make the world better is -- certainly not Angle, peeping up saying she could run again. You obviously mean not contesting Ohio - with no proof that would prove beyond a shadow of doubt he won (which does not exist to this day) and to a court controlled by Republicans.

Any Democrat not named Reid should be able to take that seat.

There is no way George Bush establishment types wanted her in the Senate, and exit polls showed a one point difference. They have stolen elections before, and would rather have a Democrat than an anti-New World Order Tea Bagger in there.

(Wish they would have done that in Kentucky, too, while they were at it.) Would that make Angle an "anti-New World Order" hero of some sort? (so far right that she is left?)

But Rand was leading by 15 points, so they couldn't. Oh don't get me wrong, neo-cons hate Democrats. But they hate Ron Paul (paleo-libertarians) and Pat Buchanan (paleo-cons) types even more. They don't want the Republican party being taken over by these types.

Neo-cons want One World Government NWO. Angle talked about fluoride in the water. The far-right thinks the government is poisoning them. Angle may be a nut, but she's no NWO Republican. Another anti-NWO type was Joe Miller. Hmm. Ken Buck too, who was leading in exit polls. Hmm. The only other besides Rand that won was Mike Lee in Utah. Another they couldn't steal, because he was up by 30 points.

LOOSER!

for several months before the election.

Still, his campaign didn't relax. They had a really good ground game going here, almost equivalent to what they did for Obama in 2008. Union members came to our door two or three times, plus several telephone calls. If the Democrats could manage such an effort elsewhere they could counter the impact of Citizens United money in most blue and purple districts, I think.

But it wouldn't have to stop there. Like the fabled machine organizations of yore, they could use the registered voters lists to keep in contact between elections. Let members of the D community know about jobs that may be open, where to go for aid if a crisis hits, etc. You can't pay people for voting, but providing information and a sign that you care about their lives is priceless.

Sharron Angle can't believe she lost the Senate race.

The rest of us can't believe she was nominated in the first place.

Sounds fair and balanced to me.
