If that’s disappointing to you then your bar for success was set too unrealistically high.

When you have a democratic candidate like Reid with an almost 70% disapproval rating, the bar for success in Nevada is anything but high. Nevadans hate Reid but the GOP picked the one candidate voters thought is worse. The one candidate Reid desperately wanted to run against.

Reid has a lot of powerful friends. He called in all the favors at the end, including a lot of Republicans party operatives in NV to endorse him at the end probably because he’s got the dirt on quite a few of them.

Angle was not a great candidate (I like her but she’s not great at persuading people), but taking Reid out would have been a tough job no matter who it was.
