only 2% left for NOTA & 3rd parties & actually undecideds?

If there's any race in the country where people are mostly sure who they're going to vote for, it's this one. People have REALLY strong opinions about Reid and Angle.

[King]

NOTA might not be as popular as we think.  People who don't like either candidate at all will likely stay home.  Those who hate Reid more know a vote for 3rd party/NOTA helps him.  And same for Angle haters.

Yeah, I know.  But still 2% seems a little low for the truly undecideds & all third party options combined

This is Rasumussen, so Reid is probably leading, which is good considering I don't want Angle in the Senate.

Ras always tends to brighten my day, even if his numbers are totally bogus. Why not?

You're rooting for Angle?

[Oakvale]

Is it silly of me that I literally can't imagine why someone would want Sharron Angle in the Senate? I mean, even if you hate Reid, isn't shrieking nutjob Angle the greater of two evils?

[Roemerista]

I think Reid just out leans here. I can't imagine a bible-thumping social-con (or whatever the hell she is) can win in the state of legalized hookers. Although I guess most of the state hates Las Vegas, so I don't know.

Well I am hoping for Angle because my hatred of Reid borders on the irrational. The only politician whom I wish to see out faster is Pelosi. But even there Reid is a distant second. I think most of her crazy will be curtailed by political reality. I imagine she will want to get reelected, and to do that you need to bring home the bacon (unless your Ron Paul), and to do that she will actually half to you know work with people who are not insane. Plus if she opposes all "help" to Nevada she won't be staying long.

and to do that you need to bring home the bacon (unless your Ron Paul),

I don't understand.  Ron Paul blatantly earmarks bacon home for his district.  Probably one of the most open GOP congressmen who do so this side of Alaska

Those that want an extra vote towards GOP leadership.

We won't be taking back the Senate now, but Angle wouldn't be up for re-election until 2016, and she might be the one vote to put us over the top for Leadership in 2012/2014.

In the meantime, she introduces legislation to outlaw the color black, to turn the DoE over to the Church of Scientology, and generally makes a laughingstock of the Senate and her party. Sounds like a losing proposition to me.

[Holmes]

Outlaw the color black?

[Meeker]

Outlaw the color black?

Harry Reid is soft on the color black.

[The Dowager Mod]

I am wearing black today in honor of Angle. 

[Meeker]

Outlaw the color black?

Harry Reid is soft on the color black.

Republicans know how to pick 'em.

Rasmussen is most likely the most accurate pollster around.

Your most likely just delusional and in denial like most liberals are this cycle.

No, they aren't. http://www.fivethirtyeight.com/2010/06/pollster-ratings-v40-results.html

One would hope that the Leadership would be able to keep a lid on her, so to speak.

She'd probably be a new Bunning, but it wouldn't mean much ultimately.

I have said that I would vote for Osama bin Laden over Reid, or something like that. I want him out. Period.
