If I was wealthy yes, I would have given money to Angle in the general election, especially if Reid was a potential threat to my business.
I thought from the start “this b is likely to blow it” but at no point did I write off her chances, that race wasn’t Akin/McCrapskull.
As for the primary field, Reid was unpopular and it took Angle blowing it for him to win reelection and we knew from the start he was extremely vulnerable, so I’d have backed Lowden or Tarkanian to the hilt if I had the resources.
trump will probably say it was trump casinos that made the donations to reid. however, trump has made donations to the democrat house and senate campaign committees. i don’t know where trump stands. he’s taken different positions depending on the audience. i wonder if he’ll use the same effort to secure the border like he did in hiring investigators to search for obama’s birth origin in hawaii.
That’s where we differ. I knew she was going to lose as soon as she was nominated, and therefore completely wrote off her chances. Frankly, I wouldn’t be surprised if Reid himself directed some of his people to “help her.”
None of us knew Akin or Mourdock would blow winnable races, for the simple fact that they were already proven winners. At least with Angle, her mouth gave us a preview of where it led, not so much with the other two guys.
