NV: Rasmussen: Sharron Angle (R) hits the 50% mark against Reid

[SPC]

Reid still has a slight lead on Intrade.

Intrade seems to be a lagging indicator, and if I had an account, I would most certainly be selling Reid contracts. Intrade gave the Delaware Republican candidate a 55% of winning when Christine O'Donnell was leading Mike Castle, and even after her primary victory, it only sunk to 20% despite polling data confirming her unelectability.

some good points to keep in mind here

this race is a tossup, and I don't need the word "still"

Actually he's doing better now.

Isn't this thread just a LITTLE reactionary?   It's 4 friggin %

I don't think that word means what you think it means.

I would be glad to see Harry Reid lose, but, even as a conservative, I'm not sure I can stomach Angle.  Are there any large enclaves of Native Americans that might pull Reid over the line as they did for Johnson against Thune in 2002?

Nevada Indians are 1-2% of the population.

That word most certainly does not mean what you think it means, Lunar. But I find it funny that that word came up in a thread about Sharron Angle, because it's a perfect description of her and her views.

Today's Nevada Senate poll - Angle 49, Reid 48
(w/o leaners) Angle 47, Reid 45

Enjoy.

That's nice. I was worried Angle might be pulling away.
