Sharron Angle will be back

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

She won't beat Heller in a primary either for NV-02 or Class 1 senate seat. She might beat Ensign though, but even thats a stretch. 

Angle is a deeply flawed candidate who lucked out and won a primary because her most prominent opponent imploded at the right time. I doubt she will get far in the future.

I will not say that Lowden or Tark would have beat Reid, their poor performances in the primary suggest they were of a caliber low enough for Reid to sneak in a win. To guarrantee a win, we needed Porter or Krolicki.

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

Yay.  I hope Buck returns, and Miller if he loses.  There may be hope yet.

As do I. Nothing would be better for us than the GOP deciding to nominate the same horrific candidates again.

Seriously do you see Democrats screaming that they want Martha Coakley to run again?

Yeah, good thing the Democrats didn't make the mistake of bringing back that loser Grover Cleveland in 1892. And Richard Nixon could certainly never win anything after losing in 1960. Good thing Abe Lincoln gave up on politics after he kept losing to Stephen Douglas.

Why are you using people you don't like as examples?

The people and particulars do not matter. BRTD's implication that because Angle lost a race, she'll automatically lose any other race, was patently ridiculous.

And Coakley got re-elected as AG.

But is finished as possible Governor or Senator after losing to Brown.

Martha Coakley managed to squander a 30-point lead in solidly Democratic Massachusetts. All she had to do was run an average or even a bad campaign, and she would have won easily, but she ran one of the sh**ttiest campaigns in history.

No matter who the Republican nominee would have been in Nevada, it was going to be a close race. Lowden would not have started with a double digit lead over Reid. And Nevada is a Democratic-trending swing state. Compared to Coakley, Angle ran a superb campaign, but it wasn't enough considering what she was up against.

[MASHED POTATOES. VOTE!]

Also, to all dear fans of the stupid and innacurate comparisions:

Did Harry Reid, when lost his race in 1974, costs Democrats a majority in Senate or narrowed it? No.

Was Bill Clinton a favorite in 1974 Arkansas congressional race against Hammerschmidt? Also no.
 

[Stranger in a strange land]

Redistricting is probably going to change NV-02 greatly by carving away a bunch of the rural counties and the Clark exurbs and it'll basically become a few of them plus metro Reno. Fine for someone like Heller, but not going to elect Angle.

Nevada will have a Republican governor and a Democratic legislature, so probably going to end up with a 2-2 split no matter what.

If Angle primaries Ensign, she'll lose badly in the general. The only reason this election was close was because she was running against Harry Reid. Against anyone else, she would have lost by double digits. Of course, against anyone else, Reid would have lost by double digits.

Uh, that's basically true of Angle as well. Lowden would've started with a huge lead against Reid (admittedly it would've no doubt shrunk due to her obviously being an idiot and the stupid chickens gaffe but she'd have to be considered the favorite.) Reid's approvals and early poll numbers were absolutely anemic. Anyone should've been able to take him down.

Um, no. The Chicken Lady would at best have started with maybe a single digit lead over Reid.

There's really no comparison to be made between what happened with Sharron Angle and Martha Coakley. Angle lost a toss-up race in a Democratic-trending swing state against a powerful and entrenched incumbent. Democrats outnumber Republicans in Nevada.

Coakley lost what was originally supposed to be a solid D race against an unknown outsider to take Ted Kennedy's seat in Massachusetts, where her party enjoys a registration advantage of more than 3 to 1.

Wow.

[Хahar 🤔]

Democrats outnumber Republicans most everywhere...

[memphis]

Hope they make her the nominee for every future race. In every state while we're at it

[Obnoxiously Slutty Girly Girl]

There's no reason to believe Nevada Democrats are Dixiecrats/DINOs in any significant number.

You and BRTD are both severely mistaken if you think that Martha Coakley did not possess massive structural advantages over her opponent in Massachusetts that Sharron Angle did not enjoy in Nevada. Coakley ran a much worse campaign and squandered a much larger lead than Angle ever had.

[memphis]

OK. Angle wasn't as epic fail as Coakley. Pretty low bar.

Would you say that Scott Brown and Harry Reid are about equally appealing to voters, or is one, perhaps, a little more popular?
