We can’t afford to drop the ball. This is not just for a politician this is to take our country back.

Don't let some newbie troll upset you. Angle is an inexperienced politician, I'll point out, but even still that does not take away the anger and concerns most Americans share. Reid is at the center of the target and his face is the bulls eye.

I believe that Nevada would vote for a Jackalope if it was running against Dingy Harry right now.

Angle raised little money during the primary. Mark Levin used his radio show to urge his listeners to donate to Angle. Plus Tea Party Express & Freedom Works (Dick Armey’s Tea Party group) dumped millions for Angle. Thus enabling for Angle to win the primary.

Also Sue Lowden said, “With the high cost of ObamaCare, we’ll need to barber chickens for healthcare services.” Reid and his allies spend $10 million to slam Lowden for her comment. As a result, Lowden dropped in the polls. When Angle won the primary, Reid supporters jumped for joy.

Funny thing is that she was horrified that someone could actually stand up to her and me being me knows how the Uk health care system is as I lived under it so she could not even push her obama care to me.

LOL

hope things are well with you down there, I’m busy her with the kids so I’ll be popping in and out of here now and again

Iagree. Thats why all this poll schmoop is statistical lie.The Dems use it as an election tool. You will hear more about it as Harry TAKES THE LEAD, etc, all crap. And then when Harry looses, the sameidiots cry foul, cheater etc. What a bunch of fascists!We have seen the whole song and dance repeatedly. It was used in Kenya my Obama and Rial Odinga to foment inter tribal genocide.

" If conservatives around the Country send $5-$25 to her campaign this summer, this race can be won."

It is all about money -- if it's spent wisely -- and this is a race that can be won without any sort of miracle. This is also a baldface farcical attempt to gin up numbers in front of the August break so Dingy/McCrisis can go home and claim they've seized the Big Mo...they're all in for a surprise in November and I guarantee you in the quiet moments both of those losers know it.

"There is plenty of time for Name ID parity to build for Angle in this election cycle"

Right but it's gotta get going, now like this weekend...

"Pat Toomey has a nice start on this with the ads he is running in PA. It already has the usual suspects running off and crying to Obama’s Speech Police."

And this raises a great point -- the candidates pay these Svengali's upwards of 20K a month before the media bill and why isn't Angle's factotum looking at effective ads like Toomey's from every angle (no pun intended) and gleaning the most visceral appeals?!

You'd think (a) it's as simple as best practices -- but we'd all be shocked to know how much of this campaign crap is, even despite focus grouping, produced ad hoc / friend of a friend (Re: Skank & John-boy) / money pit; and (b) you'd also think there'd be a clearinghouse to review/analyze these ads (RCP took a shot at it I think two Pres cycles ago and didn't keep it up). Money to be made for some enterprising sort...

Lowden is a conservative. I didn’t hear much about Tark’s history. Reid’s folks set up a fake conservative political action group and ran ads accusing Lowden of being liberal...some people fell for it. Add that with those on our side who can’t understand why energizing the tea party and energizing potential voters are two different things...and then there are those who dont care about electability at all...

Agreed. The only ones home for the poll were out-of-work, bitter Dems.

That’s right the same silly Americans who laud the AZ immigration law are ready to renominate John McPain. They can’t learn, I tell you.

Another post that came out later pointed out that this pole was skewed in Reid’s favor. They purposefully dropped 8 points in favor of Angle, then went to the public with the tainted results.

So, if this is supposed to be such a “reputable” poll, then why the need for deception?

The lengths to which the fascist propaganda machine will go is astiunding. I mean they have 400 news editiors hooked up to spin and censure conservative politics, a list serve called the "Journolist, run my Jospeph Goebbels lite, Ezra Klein.Breitbart has a 100, 000 dollar reward posted for the list, with source protection.

And they expect the public to swallow this kind of poll propaganda? What a laugh. These idiots are not cute. They are fascists. And in time, everyone will realize it, and the public wrath will be terrible indeed.

Angle should make a case for why people should vote for her. Angry toward Reid alone is not enough; not with ‘none of the above’ option available. People have already known how crook Reid is, but they need reasons to vote for her. The numbers do not show any positive movement toward Reid. They are purely negative movement toward Angle.

You are right! This election is one of the most important events in our 234 year history.

One thing I would add is if they aren't riled now they will be in a year or two.

Bette Davis said it best: "Fasten your seat belts, boys, it's going to be a bumpy ride".....

Yeah, well, I agree. But that also was applicable to the Challenger astronauts right before their last re-entry.

I’m worried that the ‘kick the incumbants out’ movement will mostly, if not entirely, affect only Republicans.

Angle has allowed Reid to define her before she had a chance to define herself. That is not a good thing, and difficult to correct once it has been done.
