This Sharron Angle person is pitiful. She's barely functional...
......how in the hell has she gotten this close to a U.S. senate seat?

She makes Palin look like Prince von Metternich.

1. After looking up Prince von Metternich, I'd have to agree. I didn't have to look up anything
to agree she's barely functional. It's almost painful to watch her.

9. Yes indeed. Painful to watch...
...I can only assume the Repug party thought they would have a blank check with her, but didn't they know she would have to talk? And interact with people? To actually have a train of thought?

18. I don't find it painful to watch...
...rather, I find it entertaining.

Granted, in different circumstances I might be willing to cringe a bit on her behalf. But given the choice between Sharon Angle and Harry Reid, there is no room for the normal human emotion of empathy on her behalf. As Keith Olbermann so eloquently pointed out the other night, this is war! I am thankful that Angle is Reid's opponent, and I look forward with gleeful anticipation to her utter humiliation at the polls.

2. She held a press conference and took no questions. WTF?
These folks not only have their own set of facts; they have their own unique dictionaries.

10. Her getaway car was backed in to the parking space.



For an even faster getaway. :rofl:

11. Wouldn't you like to know what her next important scheduled event was?
I would.

There must have been lots more cameras and reporters waiting.

Anybody got videos of Sharron at that biggie?

13. From a personal security angle, it makes perfect sense
as bat-shit crazy as she may be, she is running for public office, is VERY high profile right now and a target to any form of nut-job.
Backing into the parking space for easier egress is basic security.

20. I refudiate your assumptionizing on this one.
When using truthiness, facts are irrelevantated.

3. Harry Reid can just show clips of her running away from reporters
Politicians should always have an exit door no less than three feet away. It's political suicide to be constantly filmed awkwardly running the hundred yard dash to your car while trying to not answer questions. It tends to look ridiculous and who wants a representative who looks ridiculous?

5. The theme song for her campaign should be the Benny Hill tune. . .

7. I just laughed my ass off!
I miss Benny Hill. I wish they'd show reruns. He was so funny!

And if Harry Reid put the Benny Hill theme music on the videos in the ads of her America would feel much better after the belly laugh!

4. NV has the worst foreclosure and unemployment rate
in the country. Harry Reid is a target for RW hate.
The good news is she's the best they could come up
with.

6. She makes Alvin Greene look like a member of Mensa.
One dumb cluck.

14. Reid has to air video of her running away from reporters
with a voice-over announcer asking: If Angle isn't prepared to stand up for herself, how do you expect her to stand up for you?

15. And yet I'll bet she gets at least 40% of the vote
There is no level of competence below which Republicans won't vote for their candidate. Palin set the bar, now Angle will lower it.
I swear they could nominate Reagan's corpse and it would get 30%

16. Because "saner" and more formidable candidate became "the chicken lady."

17. Well, she has a great signature.
I saw a video of Angle signing some document and her signature was extremely cool looking (I thought). The funny thing is, $arah's signature also strikes me as very cool. Is there something going on here, or do I have a problem of some kind? (I can't wait to see Bachmann's signature!)

19. Up there with *pageant walking*
Have you consulted a graphologist? For $75/20 min. They will even drag out your dead relatives. I'm sure they will have an explanation.


*Not saying you would recommend this. :hi:

21. Funny, I thought the same thing
when I saw her signing that thing. See... she IS good at something after all. She can teach penmanship to 3rd graders. Do you think there is a correlation between personality and handwriting? If sarapalin's got a neat sig too? hmmm makes you wonder?
