— Ace Close so far between Lowden and Angle.
UPDATE [DrewM.]: Fox News says the AP is calling it for Angle.
Reid is on the ropes and the Nevada GOP just nominated the candidate he wants to run against. She better not screw this up.

yep, I don't really know much about either of these candidates, I'm donating to either one. I want that idiot Reid fired.
I like Lowden , I have seen her on many interviews, she seems to be a good candidate, but whoever wins, they have to beat the Reid.

But Angle has the connection to Scientology with her calling in Hollywood Scientologists to fight against schools giving out anti-depressants to kids.
So I reckon both have some issues.....
Still looking forward to who can pull this out, and on to November to trounce the Dingy one!

Posted by: Timbo at June 08, 2010 07:29 PM (ph9vn)
her point was IIRC that BuryCare was going to bankrupt the nation to the point we would be using chickens to barter for medical services outside the "joyous wonderful National Health Service" comrade....
if one forgives her for hyperbole and susbstitutes "cash under the table" for "chicken" I find it hard to fault her analysis.

Lowden would trounce Reid. Angle makes the race much more of an open question.

Sadly despite Nevada being "the west" it has enough donk inbreds incoming to make it "New California" so a RiNO is likely the best we can get.

Do you think anyone, anyone can see past Harry Reid's oh-so-awesome bullshit? He's just do damned good at lying, I'm convinced every time.

Will the national GOP membership and independents accept the donks granting themselves the 133% of the population voting in Indianapolis margin of cheating....
I have always suspected going back to 88 that the donks cheat up 2-5% nationally in Presidential years but if they decide "transformation" is enough to cheat a third in some states to offset the rural vote at what point do we react?

Tarkanian may be a good conservative, but he doesn't have a chance today. Even if, by some miracle, he wins, he doesn't have the chops against Harry Reid.
Sue Lowden does. And I think Sharron Angle does too, but Lowden is the best pick. This race isn't about conservative purity, per se. It's about dealing a huge blow to the liberal agenda in DC.
Posted by: Intrepid at June 08, 2010 07:54 PM (92zkk)

San Diego county voter participation just 20% of Los Angeles despite having 1/3 of the registered voters.
Conservative counties turning out higher than liberal ones.
Primaries arent a rocksolid indicator of November performance, but Republicans were happy to turn out today in Cali, even if the overall turnout was abysmal.
Btw- Boxer at just 78% of her own primary vote.

Angle has said she wants to privatize Social Security, get rid of the Department of Education repeal the income tax, so expect to get beaten over the head with how she's 'too radical.' Dingy Harry has a trillion dollars so I've prepared myself for not being able to watch commercial TV until mid November sometime. The depth of loathing for Reid in this state is being underestimated, I believe, in the national press. He's always been able to count on his union goons, but with our economy in a shambles and 14.2% unemployment rate that support may waver more than in past years.
Please note: Angle is pretty much flat broke, so she's going to need buckets of cash from out of state. You can figure that the SEIU will spend its bailout billions to keep their man in power.

And of course when I get my DNC prepaid donation envelops, will make sure to stuff them with my donation receipts to Reid's opponent.

I know Angle might have a station wagon full of dead hookers stashed behind her house that I don't know about, but she's sounded the best campaigning so far and she hasn't made some of the ridiculous unforced errors Lowden made. Man, I really hope there aren't any dead hookers.

I don't know about repealing the income tax (I would guess it's with a national sales tax instead) but I'm for extreme simplification, flattening out, and heavy restrictions placed on Congress' ability to raise it (along with disallowing anyone to give welfare checks just because they're called 'tax credits'). As to the other two issues, It's about time someone could state them and push them, as they are clearly in line with the Constitution, as regards the federal government.

Meg Whitman
Carley Fiorina
Sharron Angle (probably)
Nikki Haley
All are very strategic positions. Governor of two states - one, the huge west coast semi-socialist hellhole: the other, the one that sets the stage for GOP presidential primaries. And two very, very important pick-ups for the GOP in November.
Go XXers! Heh!

If the only minorities in CA who vote are legal, US citizens then Fiorina and Whitman won't have a problem. Thanks to Clinton's Motor Voter and every other shitty election law Dems have implemented to make it easier to steal elections, it will be tougher. Doable, but tougher.
Oh, and Juan Williams is a partisan hack.

That's why I think he's done. He was keeping the rural Nevada vote close enough to pull it out but unless he gins up 135% turnout in Vegas like Indianapolis did I suspect he is going to wind up going the Evan Bayh route.....

Bayh knows how cooked the books were in Indiana in '08 and wants no part of it this fall.

She's always been more acceptably conservative than DeVore's myrmidon supporters made her out to be (word up to Redstate's own Will Folks, Erick Erickson!). And her strategy was much smarter than anyone gave her credit for at the time.
Remember how we all were laughing at "Demon Sheep?" How it was proof that Fiorina and her team had hopelessly lost the plot, and were now just embarrassing themselves against Campbell. But even in the immediate mockery, people were pointing out that it was mesmerizing, and that they were watching the whole ten minute ad and coming away with more negative knowledge about Campbell's record. I remember because I saw the comments from morons here at AoSHQ.
It was always obvious to me that what we were seeing with Demon Sheep was the beginning of a classic 'outsider' weirdo attention-grabbing ad campaign, and then...bam. The Boxer Blimp! Don't even lie -- that shit was awesome, with the Robert Davi narration and the awesome image of her head inflating and going down in eventual flames.
At that point it was clear that her ad guys were classic California gonzo geniuses. This is a state that is used to some serious off-the-wallness in their campaigns -- they elected "Governor Moonbeam" and actor Ron Reagan and Arnold friggin' Schwarzenegger, for god's sake. And this stuff worked. What did Tom Campbell in, eventually? The realization by the electorate that his supposed "fiscally conservative" credentials weren't convincing enough. How did that impression sink in? Yup, Demon Sheep!
Sorry, I've been wanting to get this off my chest for awhile. I spend a lot of time observing politics, so it's worth pointing out an underestimated one in Fiorina's. She can beat Boxer in November. Amazingly.

NO.
If you aren't an IDIOT and waste your vote on a dunce like Poizner, heres how it would breaks down if this was 2014:
Brown won 400,000
Whitman 310,000
Poizner 135,000
some other d 90,000
The TOP TWO vote grabbers are whitman and brown, thus THOSE and only those are your choices in november.
thats what happens with an open primary.
It decimates third parties, and forces Libertarians to pick a side now- GOP or Dem.

Second reason: the Democratic establishment just pwn3d its own Daily Kos activist base. Halter was the insurgent darling of the national nutroots, this year's Ned Lamont. Those ridiculous DKos/R2000 polls (which you SHOULD NEVER TRUST) raised their hopes so high, higher than ours in PA-12, and it is so fucking delicious to watch their chosen "People Power!" candidate die right on the finish line. For maximum bitterness of hard feelings between the base and the establishment candidate.

I am HAPPY Whitman won- she has the capital and bitchness to take on Brown, the moment Poizner started getting called out locally by KFI he started whining and wouldnt go back on the show. WTF?
I am HAPPY Fiorina won because she has the $$$ to eviscerate Boxer. She's Boxers worst enemy. One less state we need to send $$ to...unfortunately Nevada will now need a shitload.

It also looks pretty anti-Constitutional, violating the spirit of the Constitution. Of course, the federal Constituton has no say over states' decisions on how their internal elections run, but political parties aren't Constitutional entities at the federal level for a very good reason. That is much of what gives the US its basic individualistic structure. For California to have the state involved in the details of the parties' nominations - to the point of selecting the nominees for them - is just nuts. Of course, California has drifted closer and closer to a true, whim of the masses democracy with every year. It's fairly pathetic and un-American in just about every sense ... and this sort of idiocy is what you get.

I didn't want that proposition to pass, but I agree with you that all it means is that the GOP has to get its shit together and pick a candidate who can win, not blow votes on losers who can't win "to make a point." And you're right that the Libertarians will have to pull themselves out of their pot-induced haze and vote Republican.
It's all academic for me as this is the last time I vote here in CA, but I'm glad Whitman and Fiorina won.

What's that got to do with anything?
Of course more Republicans were going to turnout today, there was a hotly contest 3 way primary. Reid was running unopposed.
Not saying she won't win but it won't have anything to do with disparity of primary turnout.
Posted by: DrewM. at June 08, 2010 08:51 PM (X/Lqh)
It decimates third parties, and forces Libertarians to pick a side now- GOP or Dem.
It would defeat the purpose of primaries. It's manifestly stupid. It's like Louisiana, except even stupider. Somebody could win 51% of the vote in the primary and then lose the "runoff" in November.
I actually think that Republicans will make out OK. They'll be forced to get behind one candidate early because only one Republican candidate would have any reasonable chance of making the runoff.
But the Dems, with their registration advantage, will scramble for that runoff slot. They have a huge advantage now, I don't know why they'd want to screw that up.

I lived in Sacramento for 2 years... gorgeous state... but the idiots in California made me move back to my nice red state.
The stupidity on a daily basis... the total waste of money the state spends on nonsense.... ugh.
Crap that would NEVER happen in my state...hence the 3 billion dollar surplus.
My fav. example.. the freakin beaver in a Ca. town that was ruining a bridge, road and walking paths... enviromental wackos went on and on about saving the beaver....he deserves to build a damn... Here, in my nice red state... we'd have shot the damn beaver or moved his ass elsewhere and saved millions....end of story.

It should pass the SCOTUS. The remedy for the parties is just to have their own pre-primaries, to decide the general election candidates they want to enter into the state's primary, which is really just the first general election.

It has nothing to do with a knowledge of NV politics. It's just simple a fact that contested primaries at the top of tickets will always out draw an uncontested primary headed ticket.
Look at PA a few weeks ago. The Specter-Sestak race had a lot more voters than than Toomey in a walk (even though there was a gubernatorial primary on the Republican side).

Knock off the Eeyore bullshit over Angle. Just your wang picks a candidate doesn't mean you know fuckall about NV politics, so let me just put you some fuckin schooling.
1) NO ONE CAN BEAT HARRY REID! Why? because he's the incumbent, Senate Majority Leader, and one of the most powerful politicians on the face of this planet. Therefore, it doesn't matter who the republican nominee is...hell, it can be a Ficus tree (See Michael Moore in his better days) or the Pope, and it wouldn't matter. Neither could possibly beat Harry Reid. And its for damn certain Sue Lowden couldn't beat Harry Reid, and Sharon Angle won't beat him either.
2) ONLY HARRY REID CAN BEAT HARRY REID! Regardless of who his opponent is, Reid is the only person who can defeat Reid in November. And right now, he's doing a pretty damn good job of beating himself, and there is no way in hell the man comes back from a less than 20% approval rating in the next four months. NO. FUCKING. WAY.
3) IT'S A MIDTERM! And while Reid may have been given a pass by the MFM over his racist remarks, he sure as shit pissed off the African American community (sizeable in Vegas). There is no Obama for Reid to ride on, even if the Chairman decides to come out to Vegas (a city he has pissed off royally) and campaign for Reid (think President Thin-skin has forgiven Harry for the racism?), it will only hurt. ACORN in Vegas is in still under criminal investigation and other activist organizations who were affiliated with them are being watched under a microscope. There is zero enthusiasm among blacks, and Reid needs them to carry Clark County (there and Washoe are the only place he'll garner any votes. The rest of Nevada either sits it out, or votes Angle).
4) NEVADA IS A RED STATE that went blue for the first time in its history when Obama won. Conservatives are most displeased about this. The Right is fired up out here. the Left isn't.
5) CHICKS WILL BEAT DICKS OUT WEST. The political tide is flowing female out here. Believe me, with a lot of former Californians now residing in Nevada, and all of them watching Meg Whitman and Carly Fiorina with keen interest, the broad momentum (pun intended) will spill over into the Silver State.
6) ON THE OTHER SIDE, ARIZONA. Reid has been stone silent about Arizona's immigration law, mostly because there is overwhelming support for it here in NV, even among Democrats. Reid comes out against, he loses the white dems. For, and he loses the hispanic vote. He can't talk about it, and it's hurting him one way or the other.
7) ANGLE'S CAMPAIGN WILL/SHOULD HAVE TWO THEMES: "Racism and Sedition". In Northern Nevada, where more than 80% of the residents have family or friends in the military, Reid's comments about the Surge being a failure and the Iraq War lost will fire up the hatred against him. In the Southern part of the state, his racist remarks will cost him a hell of a lot of votes. Angle would do well to have to commercials reminding the voters here of those two aspects of Reid's Career.
REID IS USELESS. Despite his powerful position, he's been too busy posing as a Tom Daschle wannabe to actually bring any substantial funds to the state of Nevada. In fact, for the last four years, we've gotten less money than a lot of states who contribute less taxes. In addition, he shut down Yucca Mountain, the nuclear waste dump site in Southern NV, eliminating hundreds of jobs in a state where unemployment is at 14%, and also eliminating billions in government funding. Nevada no longer feels the need to have Harry Reid in office and will take anyone as a replacement......which is why it was so important that the more conservative Angle win over the Centrist Lowden (who, as it turns out, hates the ta Party).
Here endeth the lesson.

Reid wins slightly. Murray wins slightly.
All that needs to shift is Angle holding onto her current tiny lead, hold OH/FL, push Rossi over, and we have 51 seats.

However, I have a passion for election data and trends, so there you go.
Knowing then what I know now, I would have still donated to Brown's campaign, and just as enthusiastically. I KNEW there would be a multiplier effect. Even if it failed to get Thompson and Pataki in, I really think it made Rossi's mind up for him. It made possible for a "old rules out the window" primary that killed Specter's career. As I said before, it directly led to Bayh's retirement. It had a tremendous, energizing effect DESPITE the passage of HC.
Not to mention him making the 41st GOP vote made the possibility of flipping control of the Senate at least a remote possibility.

Nice try, but it's ultimately the candidates' responsibility to form a voting coalition that can win, so the fault here is primarily McCain's and by extension, the doofuses that supported him in the primary.

Blow me. The myopic obsession over short-term election prospects is as much to blame for the Republican Party's pitiful state as anything else. It was the long-line of awful Republicans that put us into the position of losing to a no-name like Obama in the first place (and gave us its prototype, RomneyCare).

Funny- I know at least three gay Democrats whose anger over union spending resulting in education cuts, the exploding debt, and the ridiculous tax rates, have made them PUMPED to vote for "the bitch chicks" in November- Meg and Carly. For some reason both have a following in the gay community- particularly Meg.
Being that they already got DADT on the way to being overturned, and Prop 8 is already being challenged... there is no reason for them to vote anymore for Democrats- their words.

The lib Dems sold out California to the state employee unions and the illegals years ago who will keep them in power. I don't see how any GOP governor will be able to do anything because of our insanely liberal legislature.

The same argument they use to allow naturalized Americans to maintain other citizenships when, in the very beginning of the oath of citizenship, naturalizing Americans must say:
"I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen;"
or the argument they offer to claim that dual/multiple citizens can be 'natural born citizens' and eligible for the Presidency.

Then there is Reid's approval ratings. He will try to salvage his campaign by pointing out he is Senate Majority Leader with seniority and can use that to steer goodies to Nevada - but Angle can point out that he can't rise any higher, and his tenure has brought 14% unemployment and a real estate market disaster to the state, so what are they losing with that?
Depending upon what Reid has to try to push through this year for Obama before the Republicans gain seats in the fall, he could make this a fairly close race, or he could lose badly. No likely scenario shows him winning.

Yes. And progressive Republican neoconservatives had better not screw this up against her, as well. If they can't have the ticket, scuttle mentality has been the Republican insider trading card, protecting their own Washingtonian interests from being exposed. That includes smart asses who never really wanted to identify with any Tea Party agenda, smugly categorizing the entire public revolt against authoritarianism as foolishly hopeless. There are those who would rather cat call from the peanut gallery, considering themselves too smart or too sophisticated to support some upstart conservative middle aged woman politician who just won't accept her place in life behind the scenes.
It boils down to uniting behind this Tea Party candidate on HER conservative platform and effectively rebutting inevitable editorials propagandizing sabotage.
Time to embrace Constitutional Conservatism if indeed you want any degree of Marxism rescinded from our governance, or at least to drag heels against the advancing Socialist power base that indeed speeds our nation's ruin to cataclysm. It's the economy, stupid only scratches that bloated surface. Constitutional Rights and the integrity of citizenship and secure borders matter.

In the end Angle will win by about 5 points. Reid is unpopular, and there's nothing he can do to change that.

I think she will win by more. This time the liberals are going to stay at home.

321 "True, but that is one hell of a negative."--nighthawk
EXCEPT that one hell of a negative is not true. You epitomize smart ass peanut gallery saboteur posing as if conservative. Leftist farts will quote you from Ace's site as if you represent something credible.
Even your argument is epic fail. Alliance matters.
Democrats utilize dead people's "votes" alongside illegal alien votes, stuffed ballot boxes and fixed computers to align a "majority" victory.
Only accepting allies who are your own clone is no way to defeat the mega-socialists in American politics. That's no way to win any battle; certainly no way to maintain your Constitutional Rights or lower your taxes that Obama (dreams of his father's word as officially published in Kenya) would make 100% income in order to provide all you "needs"-- as if authoritarian owners give a shit about your "needs".

She won by 27%. Hermargin even way outstripped the Ras.
I think she was climbing so fast at the end the polls couldn't track it. If there had been a few days until the primary, or if Will Folks had made a few more statements she would have got 60% and there would be no runoff.

She should win by more, but I'd put the over/under at 5. The MFM will scream that she's "extreme," which she is, actually, but the MFM has cried wolf on this so many times that most people will ignore them.
I think the Scientology thing is a dud. Is the MFM going to trash Scientology and piss off Hollywood? I doubt it.
Posted by: schizoid at June 09, 2010 04:31 AM (cWSzY)
I have never got anyone to define "extreme".

From her campaign mailer:
"Cut back 5% for 5 years on all unconstitutional departments and agencies, excluding our Social Security and Medicare contract with Seniors" (note that she called SS and Medicare unconstitutional).
"Audit the Federal Reserve"
"Abolish the IRS tax code [...] and replace it with a flat tax."
"Liquidate Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and replace them with private sector institutions that perform comparable functions"
"Defund unconstitutional programs, departments and positions like Obama's czars"
"Keynesian economics has been shown time and again not to work, and belongs on the scrapheap of history's useless theories"
This is mild. I can't find the mailer she sent me in her primary campaign against Raggio but at the time it struck me as very black helicopterish.
Of course I agree with all of the above, and with the mailer I can't find.

Only a communist/Democrat would call reading the Constitution as it is written extreme.
As for the "flat tax" that is actually fair. Calling the progressive tax fair is another extortion by the communists.

If our candidate had won, we would demand that all you crazy bastards rally behind and support them. But since the other candidate won, we're taking our balls and going home to our mommies.
FIFY. They don't have any balls.
Posted by: Entropy at June 09, 2010 05:40 AM (IsLT6)
I'd like to agree, but unfortunately the MFM has convinced everyone that anyone who knows the constitution too well is a dangerous wacko. Following the constitution is extreme. Sad but true.
Posted by: schizoid at June 09, 2010 05:50 AM (cWSzY)
That is why we must take back the dialog from the MFM and fight them every time they make some kind of BS statement to that effect.
We have bowed down to them much too often and it is time to take things back.
Just look at the way you worded your statement. You can agree to read the Constitution correctly because the MFM has lied so effectively to everyone.
Posted by: Vic at June 09, 2010 05:55 AM (6taRI)
I called Angle "extreme" because she takes positions that other Republicans are afraid to. I never said that was a bad thing.
I voted for her. I'm tickled pink that she won. I look forward to voting for her again in November.

Karl Rove on Fox now predicting the races in CA and NV will be VERY negative with lots of personal attacks because the Dem incumbents can not run on their record.
Has Boxer ever run on anything other than "my opponent is a right-wing extremist?"

Vic @ 9:55, yes.
"I'd like to agree, but unfortunately the MFM has convinced everyone that anyone who knows the constitution too well is a dangerous wacko. Following the constitution is extreme. Sad but true."

"Sad but true"? That schizoid would endorse dhimmitude via lack of resistance assent is sad but true. But his assent to dhimmitude hardly legitimizes authoritarianism.
"Convinced everyone" as in EVERYONE? Hardly. "Everyone" in the circle of Marxist apologists, indeed, are convinced that authoritarianism is their best bet to abusing power without impediment. But why lend credence to their illusion "that EVERYONE is convinced" that the Constitution and its supporters are "dangerous wackos"? To assent such an erroneous position places one within the progressive element supporting Obama-Holder-Napolitano authoritarianism as if their success is inevitable. Don't forget that UNALIENABLE RIGHTS do exist so long as individuals and groups unite to protect them along with the responsibility and integrity of CITIZENSHIP with national borders secured. And it is the conservatives who unite as one, e pluribus unum. Whereas, anti-constitutionalists are divisive, and perhaps united in the thought that THEIR particular Verein Bund will peak the globalist power pyramid.
E pluribus unum. There are yet the MANY abused but essential conservative citizens who are NOT giving up Constitutional governance simply to 'get along' with progressively violent authoritarian federal Socialists and their dhimmiwit lackeys and the truly bitter clinging titty babies who refuse to become self sufficient and participate in productivity.
Whether or not people feel religious, people with a brain and memory absolutely identify with the phrase, I was blind, but now I see. The concept of self realization has been around for eons, an essential epiphany referenced since the Garden of Eden story/myth of creative existence (in the Joseph Campbell sense of Myth as ancient truth's archetype from ages of recurring experience). Native American animist legends, Hindu gods, Buddha and Jesus represent creative realizations.
What our American Founding Fathers amalgamated, the balance of Classical Reason with Revolutionary Liberty within our American democratic REPUBLIC, exists. No reason to abandon truth because someone says to move on, nothing to see here.

Naw, you're not any Marxist whatchmacallit- you're just a clear-headed soul who realizes that at least 52% of the electorate are a bunch of drooling couch potatoes who will believe anything Oprah Winfrey or the MFM tell them and that that fact compels good candidates, like Ms. Angle, who have said or done things that the MFM can easily spin against them to take swift action to contain any potential damage to their campaigns.
That realization and suggestion appears to really unhinge some folks around here- I'm in the same boat as apparently I've committed similar thought crimes.
So as one Marxist whatchamacallit to another - have another slug of Val-U-Rite Comrade!

Tomorrow, $$ time for Angle, Rossi, Kirk, Toomey.
I like Toomey even though he told me that Rubio could not win-Rubio was just getting his campaign started-which meant Centrist Idiot Crist would have been the GOP candidate.
A year later Rubio is looking good while Crist is just another loser-like-Harry-Reid-voters are losers.
That said; Centrists try growing a spine for a change, buck it up, stop with whiny porn-flaccid Maher crap-you are humiliating yourselves, a bunch a ball-less men being beaten by the mama grizzlies.

I'm sure Tina Fey is working on it now...
Great, TV-land people are running the country into their sewer yet they still have the power to bamboozle the stupid all over again while the flaccid-pron pricks incessantly complain their candidate is not the perfect Centrist.
Maybe if enough Centrist Americans pulled their collectively brain-damaged Hollywoodized heads out of Jon Stewart's Idiot Canal, wipe the crap from their eyes then we would not be dwelling in Obamawood surrounded by paper-mached fake Greek columns.

Centrist-you voted for Hollywood's Bullshit and you won't be able to stop yourselves from buying into the Bullshit all over again.
Grow some balls boys-you are humiliating yourselves being so easily duped by Hollywood Bullshit artists.
Contrary to your brainwashed Hollywood ways, you are NOT LOOKIN' COOL.
As a matter of fact, your pricks have never looked more flaccid.
