Sharron Angle, Nevada Senate Candidate: 'I Am The Tea Party'
Edited on Thu May-27-10 10:54 AM by laughingliberal
PAHRUMP, Nev. — Sharron Angle wants to wipe out Social Security, shutter the Education Department and return to the days almost a century ago when the federal income tax was unconstitutional.

A tea party conservative testing the limits of anti-government sentiment, she's also the Republican on the rise in an unpredictable race to pick an opponent for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, a top Democrat in Washington who's in trouble at home.

What's more, she is evidently the Republican whom Reid would like most to run against. Witness a costly television campaign financed by the majority leader's backers to erode the support of the shaky Republican front-runner, Sue Lowden.

"I am the tea party," said Angle, a 60-year-old former Nevada lawmaker

Mixed feelings here. On one hand, I thing Reid could defeat her so would like her to be the nominee. OTOH, if she were to win, Goddess help us.
