Angle earned the bad rap by her prior runs for office. I warned everyone within earshot she was too damaged, immensely unpopular and polarizing to win a statewide office, and she proved that. Any other credible GOP candidate in the primary would’ve defeated the highly unpopular Reid.
Perhaps. In any event, Palin had nothing to do with Angle. She didn’t endorse her in the primary and only issued a pro forma endorsement in the fall when it really didn’t mean anything. I think her father and brother actually campaigned for Tarkanian during the primary.
