A growing number of Nevada Republicans are expressing skepticism over Angle's Senate candidacy. Some are even signaling they may not vote for the GOP contender over Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid in November.

That's hilarious, considering how much the GOP hates Reid.

Honestly, if I worked on the Reid campaign, I'd be setting aside money right now so that I could send Sharron Angle a fruit basket, or some wine, or some flowers when it's all over. She's making their jobs that much easier.

suggested last month that Angle isn't "solution-oriented"

Because the teabaggers are SOOOOOOOOO interested in solutions instead of just bitching on badly-misspelled signs about imaginary boogeymen coming to get their taxes and jerbs, amirite? /eyeroll

And guns. Don't forget guns.

Damn, I KNEW I forgot one.

Heh. The National Rifle Association won't even endorse this lunatic. I'm guessing they don't want the blowback if she loses, and her voters take her "Second Amendment Remedies" speech to heart.

A Republican too crazy for the NRA. Now I've seen everything.

Really? Because I live in Nevada and a shockingly large number of people seem to be getting on board with her.

I think some people are underestimating just how much some people in this state hate Harry Reid. I know a lot of people who think he's done nothing for the state considering unemployment, housing prices and all that.

Ugh, yeah. I'm still pretty optimistic about his chances though - I tend to forget just HOW batshit some of the Teabaggers here are. Remember all those Ron Paul people? Ye-ah.

Still, looks like Raggio hates her guts still. He tends to be well liked among the saner Rs so... Optimism?

I think it's more news that early polls had Harry Reid losing by "Any Republican" by double-digits, now it's too close to call, because she's so reactionary.

Even if she does win, the GOP will have to funnel more time, effort, and money into a race that should have eliminated Reid after the GOP primary.

The Teabaggers are notoriously stingy when it comes to campaign donations, so a lot of money if going to have to come from national PACs that planned to use the money in other races.

I don't even live in Nevada, but we really don't need another damn teabagger in any kind of positon of power.

I hope Reid pulls a miracle out of his ass.
