The polling firm Research 2000 recently reported that Sharon Angle was the leading the GOP primary pack for US Senate. Results of this poll were quite similar to that of the Suffolk University Political Research Center Poll released on Thursday. Just as in Kentucky the Tea Party favored candidate is directly pitted against a Republican establishment candidate. Though the polls are currently favoring an Angle victory there is another clue to her winning odds-the mainstream media.
Just a few days out from the primary the Mainstream Media is focusing negatively on Sharon Angle. They have already begun to paint her as an extremist and are saying how good her victory is for Reid. Should you doubt there is a lot of spinning please review recent media coverage. Sharon Angle is now under attack from the liberal Bloggers and Mainstream Media. A quick review of recent stories shows negative attacks on Angle from Nevada TV station 4 (NBC), The Las Vegas Review Journal and a cleverly done more subtle attack from The Atlantic (magazine). Of course never forget The Daily Kos and Huffington Post. All this is happening while the media issues fawning puff pieces on Harry Reid. Some reports even coupling negative Angle coverage with Reids Michelle Obama Nevada speaking endorsement!

I have said it for months. Get ready for a Reid win. Angle cannot win in the General.
Defeat is NOT an option.
The mainstream media, slowly but surely, is exposing itself for having NO CREDIBILITY.
Reid can’t win.
So will you give me a million to 1 odds? Love the FR defeatists every election. They scream for the Tea Party and when a TP candidate gets nominated they scream like little girls. Go back to your McCains who never lose.
She will defeat Dirtbag Reid because of the TP.
Pray for America
Yep. So long as he's alive and in the chase, he's the favorite.
How do you know that Angle going to win the nod? I still think Lowden will.
i hope your right that Angle is a disaster with lot of awful quotes.
OK genius do you live in Nevada? Do you talk to people here.? How much do you really know about Angle?
Lowden is toast. Tark could take it, and win in November.
So then you will give me a million to one odds since you know everything there is to know about politics in NV? I’ll bet $10 to win. That should be $$ from a baby for you.
Every election just like the Scott Brown election we hear from all you experts how we’re going to lose. You know about politics pre TP.
Pray for America
I disagree with your premise that Reid will be so difficult to beat. The economy in Nevada unfortunately is in the toilet, it’s getting worse, and Reid is blamed for much of the State’s current woes. I’ll bet an IRS auditor in Nevada is more popular than Harry Reid. Angle or Lowden will make Reid and his incredibly unpopular policies/practices and the awful economy the issues, and lay it squarely at his feet. I remember many Repubs said the same thing about Obama in 2008, the same as Dems said about Reagan in 1980, that they both could win their party’s nods but were too extreme to win the general.
I know enough about chicken littles on the internet to know one when I see one.
Boo hoo. Your candidate didn’t win. Cry in your Cheerios and whine some more of Free Republic about how Harry Reid is going to win. Why even bother to try now?
Hey, maybe she could barter some chickens for some ad time, since she’s so short on money and all...
Harry Reid is a cockroach. Only psychological warfare can save him. He is hated that much. So is McCain. The media will never report on that emotion within the electorate, because they specialize in lies and psychological conditioning. If a Republican wins, especially a conservative, we only find out on election night. Surprise, that's what they did in 1980.
If Reid can't be beaten this year, we might as well all give up. But nominating more Lindsey Graham's is never the answer.
The mainstream media, slowly but surely, is exposing itself for having NO CREDIBILITY.
They have already done that, it is just that nobody wants to admit it.
Poor Sharron Angle, being attacked. Sue Lowden has had over 3 million dollars dump against her by Club for Growth, TPX and Reid’s BS PACS in the last 3 weeks. And the LSM has been on her for 3 months attacking her non-stop.
To all those who want Angle to win. This is just a small part of the game in NV. The Reid machine has not even broken a sweat.
This NV war will be to the death and it will not just be the death of the candidate, it is going to drag down the anti-harry pacs with it.
