2. She's churchier and crazier than the rank and file
which is not that easy to do. She does it with her call to make alcohol illegal and some of the other howlers she's come up with.

When you're too nuts to be a Republican, you're really way out there. That's where she is.

3. I think you've come up with a bumper sticker for Nevadans!
Sharron Angle:
Too nuts to be a Republican


:rofl:

4. I say she is at least somewhat unique! Just look at how the
national handlers the party sent in after she won the nomination are trying to reign her in from lala land. They redid her web site, told her NOT to answer off the cuff questions, and are, for the most part, trying to hide all but her face from the national public viewing. Just listen to her response about someone being forced to bear the baby of a rapist! Even the most far RW pubs aren't really for that!

10. They agree on some things yes, but I believe SHE is much more
extreme than the marginally rational Pubs.

6. I think the difference in old Neocons and the new generation
Edited on Fri Jul-23-10 01:36 PM by Johonny
is the old generation is more familiar with an era of an open active press. Where as the new Neocon generation grew into politics in the era of RW radio and fox news. They have no idea they aren't suppose to say what is openly said on talk radio everyday when standing in front of a general press corps. However I have no illusion that the old guard republicans didn't think about these ideas. The point of the handlers is to try to train these people how to behave in front of agency that aren't fox news. Not to change their ideas on health care or social security etc.

7. Technically, they are not her ideas, but the ideas of Ayn "Psychopath" Rand that all Repukes
parrot.

8. They all believe the same shit she does. She's just dumb enough to actually campaign on it!
How many votes would Chimpy have had in 2000 (the real ones, not the stolen ones) if he had actually said....

Yeah, I'm gonna get a whole cabinet full of PNAC warmongers, start two illegal wars, shred the Constitution, and give tax cuts to millionaire & billionaire tax dodgers. And watch the economy go down the toilet like it ain't done since 1929.

Probably not that many. Maybe the 18 - 20 % who were still his fans when he left office.

11. Something else: she is part of a unique subset of Repukes.
But they are all unreasonable in their own ways.
