MFM Agrees: Reid Resurging
— Ace

By two points! Some within the margin-of-error movement, getting him all the way up to thirty-nine percent!

Meanwhile, Sharon Angle is now ahead of Sue Lowden. The Tea Party Express (advocacy group) crows:

According to a brand new Suffolk University Political Research poll, Angle has now jumped to an 8% lead over former front-runner Sue Lowden.
The previous two polls conducted in this race had Angle trailing Sue Lowden by 1% (Mason-Dixon) while a Public Policy Polling survey had Angle actually ahead of Lowden by 3%.
The Tea Party Express endorsed Angle on April 15th at a National Press Club news conference in Washington, D.C. At the time Angle was at 5% in the polls and badly trailed Sue Lowden who was at 47%.
After a nearly $500,000 advertising blitz by the Tea Party Express (and a new $400,000 ad campaign by the Club for Growth which began advertising for Angle last week) Angle has now erased that deficit and has taken the lead.

2 If someone can tell me something bad about Angle, go ahead. Other than the fact that Lowden was the early frontrunner, I don't see anything so special about her. And Tarkanian just has a famous father.

9 CARSON CITY Â— Surging Republican Senate candidate Sharron Angle has had to defend her support of a prison program that her opponents linked to Scientology. Trying to head off that theme, Angle has eliminated from her campaign website mention of prominent members of the church, whom she worked with on other legislative efforts. Angle has removed the claim that she, along with actresses Kelly Preston and Jenna Elfman, approached Sen. John Ensign to sponsor legislation prohibiting school employees from requiring students to take psychotropic drugs, such as anti-depressants. Preston and Elfman are high-profile members of the Church of Scientology, which does not believe in the use of psychiatric drugs. Congrats to Harry Reid if the NV GOP actually nominates this woman...he'll return to the Senate again.

If she's to be taken seriously, she needs to get out in front of this shit and state that school employees aren't medical doctors and can't be mandating that kids be turned into zombies for just acting like kids. Being lumped in with those Scientology vermin is a really dumb thing to do though....

Plus - California dem airhead Sanchez dusts off time proven strategy of energizing 'educated class' dem base - outright, baldfaced lies as she declares that white supremacist groups are behind AZ and other states efforts to shame fed govt into enforcing immigration laws.

I know Nevada. While it harbors strong tea party-fu at taxpayer level, such never trickles up to reform the rancid halls of Nevada power. And they be rancid.

Never forget what the establishment Pubbies did to the nascent tea party movement during the last election. That establishment would be Angle's establishment.

I heard Lowden on KSFO out of San Francisco a couple of months ago.

Her main talking point was that Nevada sent more money to Washington than it got back. She was going to get even! Or better.

Why she would be so stupid as to come to California and say she was running to get more of the federal budget for Nevada is beyond me. Why would anyone in California support her if her main issue was MORE PORK for another state?

Haven't heard from Angle yet but Lowden doesn't deserve conservatives' support.

Posted by: ParanoidGirlInSeattle

After his repeated bungled racist comments (negro dialect, opposition to a bill is equal to being a slave owner) I'm unsure as to which of these political creatures is debasing the other.

116 O/T: "We are never going to take government back by giving in to smear merchants and rumor mongers. The people of SC should base their decision on the candidates' records and statements of what they've done and would do going forward as regards South Carolina government.

And by that measure, Nikki Haley is the genuine reform candidate, wanting to accomplish good things for her state, bringing much needed changes. I've no intention of giving in to semi-connected wannabe king, or queen makers, simply desperate to put themselves on the map, no matter the cost to a good person and fine family."

Posted by: MikeTheMoose at June 03, 2010 11:58 AM (0q2P7)

That is precisely the problem, MTM. We have been so over run by Cali that our state even changed color last election. Here in the south (Vegas) it is like aliens have landed and I don't mean at area 51! I believe that for a R to win, the total North has to be firmly behind them, because the south can no longer carry a candidate that the North does not support. If the North goes all indy for Reid, we are sunk! I have heard a lot of moderates say they will vote for Reid just to keep his valuable job even though it is pointed out he has done NOTHING good for Nevada in spite of his powerful job. OH and the debacle he has made of YUCCA is sickening!

OT: BP successfully cut the lower marine riser pipe at 10 a.m., using giant shears 5,000 feet below the surface of the sea, but it was a "more jagged cut" Coast Guard Adm. Thad Allen told reporters, and therefore will be a looser fitting seal. Now a containment dome with a rubber seal will be lowered over the severed pipe. Allen called the cut a "significant step forward" and said the leak could be largely sealed today.

Question: why wasn't this done 45 fucking days ago?

Harry Reid is one arrogant son of a bitch that deserves to lose his Senate seat. He ran against me and lied about my connections with the Corleone family. Yes, I knew of Fredo and Michael Corleone, and on one occasion, the family lawyer Tom Hagen assisted me with a very minor problem.

I have nothing but praise for the generosity and kindness of the Corleone family, and wish them the best. For Harry Reid, he would be better off fishing on Lake Tahoe than being in Washington representing Nevada.

And rightzilla was banned, but found he could still post comments. He asked Ace if he had been banned; if Ace had changed his mind and unbanned him; or if he was banned, but the tech-side had a screw up and he could still post. And I recall he wrote that if he was banned but could still, technically, post, that he wouldn't abuse it.

160 AngleÂ’s website formerly said that accompanying her to EnsignÂ’s office was Read, who heads the National Foundation of Women Legislators. That organization, which some say has links to Scientology, promotes the drug treatment program that Angle advocated for in 2003. The groupÂ’s website lists Angle as a legislative chairwoman of the Business, Housing & Economic Development Committee. She claims to be a Southern Baptist, but she's way, way too cozy with Scientologists for my tastes. If she's nominated, Reid wins the general election.
