DC EXCLUSIVE: Palin supports Angle and will ‘actively help’ her in Nevada
By Alex Pappas - The Daily Caller | Published: 4:53 PM 08/17/2010 | Updated: 8:17 AM 08/18/2010
The Daily Caller has learned that Sharron Angle has former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin’s endorsement.
Palin’s brother, Chuck Heath, told The Daily Caller that his sister plans to “actively help” Angle and “do whatever she can” to help take out Democratic Sen. Harry Reid, the Senate’s majority leader, in Nevada this fall.
“She’s got GUTS and is putting up with more crap than she deserves because the libs don’t know what to do with her and the support she has,” Palin said in a email provided to TheDC by Heath.
While Palin has not yet formally endorsed Angle in public before now, she said her support was offered to the Angle campaign when she recently made a donation to her. It is not clear if Palin was referring to a personal donation she made to Angle or the money her SarahPAC has contributed to Angle’s campaign. Palin has also supported Angle on Twitter, writing that Angle was “right” about wanting to allow workers to invest Social Security in private accounts.
The former governor of Alaska has made a point to publicly endorse conservative, Republican women—or “Mama Grizzlies”—this election cycle. Palin often makes these endorsements over Twitter and Facebook, but an endorsement announcement for Angle has not yet been made.
During the Republican primary in Nevada, Palin’s brother and father publicly supported Angle’s rival Danny Tarkanian in the race. Heath said Tuesday that he’s “happy to endorse” Angle now.
Angle’s campaign did not immediately return a request for comment.

I think the problem here is that the 25% of the population that actively supports Palin ALREADY supports Angle.
So her involvement won't change too much, but it'll allow her to 'claim victory' should Angle manage to defeat the unpopular turd known as Reid.

And Obama is going out to help Reid - so its even steven.

I think you better check Palins record in supporting candidates and compare it to Obamas.Her track record is a lot better then his.

Well,he picked a winner in Colorado,but lost in New Jersey,Mass, Virginia.So that is a .200 avg.,not very good.

He is like 1-6 with Bennett winning in CO in the primary.

I wonder if Obama will campaign for Reid? :)

So Palin chooses Angle over a "Tea Party" (in quotations because it's not the original RP TP) candidate?
