And this time… it’s Rasmussen:

    Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has edged ahead of his Republican opponent Sharron Angle in his bid for reelection in Nevada. Both candidates are seen to hold extreme views by large segments of the population.

    The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Likely Voters in Nevada finds Reid with 45% of the vote, while Angle earns 43% support. Seven percent (7%) favor some other candidate, and four percent (4%) are undecided.

Reid has now led in three straight polls: Mason-Dixon, Public Policy Polling, and now Ras.  On June 9th, the Rasmussen results had Angle ahead by eleven.  To say that the momentum in this race belongs to Harry Reid would be a drastic understatement. 

50% of Nevada “likely voters” find Harry Reid’s views “extreme.”  58% say that about Angle’s views.  And there’s your race, folks.  Reid’s defined Angle on his terms, and she’s done herself no favors by playing into his portrait of a neophyte, unserious, unready candidate.  All things else being equal, if Nevadans are going to have a Senator they dislike, they probably would rather have the Senate Majority Leader than a freshman backbencher.

Rasmussen now considers the race a “Lean Democratic” one, which would, as I’ve mentioned, make Senate takeover impossible.  If Harry Reid wins, he will return to Washington as the Majority Leader of the US Senate.  As for my aggregate, I’d still be willing to give you Angle -2, but I wouldn’t feel great about doing it:

Many of us dont want the republicans to take over either house.Just get enough to stop Obama.The economy will still suck by 2012,democrats controll everything and then in 2012 we sweep the garbage into the ocean never to be heard of again.Just get enough to completely stop Obama.

pat buchanan agrees with you.  He doesn't want the repubs to win, nor present ANY alternative policies for the next 2 years.  Then he thinks that'll lead to wins in all 3 bodies in 2012.  But giving congress house to repubs in 2010 means Obama might keep his job in 2012.

Republicans win the house,Obama has a foil.Democrats rule EVERYTHING is his fault.

That says it all.  58% of voters find Angle's views extreme.  In a state where 75% of voters wanted Reid ousted just a few months ago - they still find his crooked ass to be a better choice than this nutjob.

Why is she a nutjob 240? 

[240 is Back]

Why is she a nutjob 240? 

I dunno.  upbringing.  genetics.  Maybe some combination?

[Dos Equis]

   She's a "nutjob" because she's open about her faith, like Obama, Dubya, Hillary, Ron Paul, and a plethora of other politicians.

Can you show one thing she has said that compares to sitting in a church listening to Rev. Wright for twenty years.Anything she has done or said compare to that?

In other words, you have nothing other than your MSNBC inspired talking points.
