The Washington Examiner reports that "Angle has risen to second place with 25 percent, [Sue] Lowden is first with 30 percent, and [Danny] Tarkanian continues to fade with 22 percent.
The latest Rasmussen poll shows Angle with a 48-40 lead over Reid in a hypothetical general election matchup. With early voting beginning May 22, and recent stumbles by Lowden, the matchup could become more than hypothetical.
It looks like the Tea Party Candidate may indeed replace Harry Reid in the Senate
Link to the You Tube Video of the FOX 5 News report
A dramatic shakeup has taken place in Nevada where the candidate endorsed by the Tea Party Express, Conservative Republican Sharron Angle, has seen a net poll gain of 35% since we endorsed her campaign exactly one month ago.
There are now growing prospects that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid will be replaced by a rock-solid tea party conservative, Sharron Angle. This would be one of the political stunners of the year if the momentum continues.
Watch the fantastic report from Fox 5 News:
Political observers were buzzing about the stunning news in the race to Defeat Harry Reid, and you can read the report from David Fredosso of the Washington Examiner - HERE.
This campaign has now become a 'national' campaign, with everyone watching to see if this could be the biggest case of a true-blue tea party conservative emerging to win the GOP nomination and then defeat the Democrat, Harry Reid, in November.
We can't afford to lose. We've made such stunning progress in these past 30 days!
That recent Mason-Dixon poll showed our one hurdle is that Sharron Angle still is not known by a lot of voters in Clark County - where population centers like Las Vegas, Henderson and Laughlin are located.
BTTT
Wow!
Here it is again
Thanks for the bump Jet!
You bet!
That's why I think this endorsement was so unfortunate. I saw Angle on CSPAN and think she is the one candidate Reid will probably beat in the end. She just didnt strike me as ready for prime time.
Hope I'm wrong but her performance left me depressed.
The Tea Party people are having a giant impact on elections.
They say all politics is local...which is true...but the impact that the grass roots conservatives are having on the political process at this time is causing many races to be brought to the national level.
A senator like Reid (who is going down!) --- and Pelosi, Feinstein etc, have a horrible effect on our Constitutional Republic
Just Vote Them Out!
Tea Party also needs to thoroughly research Angle’s endorsement of Scientology programs for prison rehab. That will be hung around her neck and could sink her in the general.
She is our only chance to get a good conservative in Nevada to replace Reid
His buddy Lowden can’t beat Reid.
Tark wouldn’t either
Sorry about your pessimism, and how you were struck
That recent Mason-Dixon poll showed our one hurdle is that Sharron Angle still is not known by a lot of voters in Clark County - where population centers like Las Vegas, Henderson and Laughlin are located.
That's not a hurdle, that's an opportunity. Sounds like a visit to Las Vegas by Sarah could turn things our way in a day.
Cheerleading for Reid on this forum isn’t a good idea
This isn't the place for that either

The URL contained a malformed video ID.
You're right on both counts.
The Tea Party Express is raising money now to place ads in the areas where Angle isn't well known enough.
That's going to help a lot.
I believe the TPX's involvement is largely responsible for Angle's recent surge in the polls.
I posted it again in post #4
Here it is again
I asked the mods to fix the one in the main article. Perhaps they will.
This one worked: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6D0e4J6mxxA
Hold my beer and....
What’s wrong with Sue Lowden?
Someone get this to Keith Olbermann, I want to see his big head explode!! LOL
