The Reno Gazette-Journal reports: Sharron Angle, a conservative activist and onetime candidate for U.S. Senate, announced Tuesday that she would run for Congressional District 2 based in Reno. Angle has run for federal office three times before to no avail, including CD2 against then-U.S. Rep. Dean Heller, R-Nev. She shot to national attention during a 2010 run for U.S. Senate …

From the Las Vegas Sun: Sharron Angle, who made a famously unsuccessful bid for U.S. Senate in 2010, is running for the seat again. Angle filed late Friday in Carson City as a Republican candidate for the open seat of outgoing U.S. Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev. Angle, a Tea Party darling, had faced Reid in 2010 after winning the GOP …

“I think that as Americans, we like the open forum of discussion. That’s what freedom of speech is, that’s what freedom of assembly is — we have an assembly here of people coming together to exchange ideas — and I think that’s what we like is the discourse and exchange of ideas. I am always in favor of freedom. As …

Wingnut teabagger loon Sharron Angle says she’s thinking about running for president. SRSLY. Asked if she was planning a run for the White House, Angle, who lost to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid in a tightly contested race in November, appeared unwilling to close any doors. “I’ll just say I have lots of options for the future, and I’m investigating …

Yale librarian Fred Shapiro’s annual list of the year’s most memorable quotes is out and Christine O’Donnell lands on the top ten twice, including at #1. 1.

I am touching ALL of the Flying Spaghetti Monster’s noodly appendages in joy as the networks have just declared Sen. Harry Reid as the winner in Nevada’s freakazoid Senate race. Never before (I don’t think) have I loathed a political candidate so fiercely with every gay fiber of my being as I do Sharron Angle. (OK, maybe Ruben Diaz.) Congratulations …

The two final polls in Sen. Harry Reid’s battle against Sharron Angle show him only 1-3 points behind, which is essentially a tie in the famed “margin of error” game. Nate Silver continues to call the seat as “likely GOP.” This is the race that will have the nation up very late tomorrow night.

Right Wing Watch tips us to this Sharron Angle spot produced by friend-o-Jeebus Ralph Reed’s Faith and Freedom Coalition.

Speaking to a Nevada church, Sharron Angle got all caught up in Jeebus and denounced social programs, abortion, divorce, and gay marriage as the “wicked ways” that are destroying America. “I confess that we are a nation who has killed our children. I confess that we are a nation who has walked away from the family and allowed divorce even …

Sharron Angle sent Joy Behar a huge bouquet of flowers with the note: “Joy, I raised $150,000 online yesterday thanks to your comments.”

This morning Joy Behar announced on The View that she is making a $5000 donation to the NYC-based AIDS charity God’s Love We Deliver “in Sharron Angle’s name.” Whoopi Goldberg: “You know what, I’m gonna match that, baby.” Barbara Walters jumped in, “I’ll match that too, but because it’s a good cause, not because it’s political.” Sharron Angle, helping poor …

Grim, grim, grim. As much as we loathe Lady Racist, at least some of this has to be due to Reid’s somnolent performance in the debate. He makes Al Gore look like a manic game show host.

As I noted in a post early today, Joy Behar called Sharron Angle an “evil moron” and “bitch” for her racist ad about immigration. Tonight Behar is being digitally tarred-and-feathered by the teabaggers and is getting a bit of criticism from the left as well. Below is the original View clip. Not embeddable here but equally worth watching is Behar’s …

Joy Behar just opined on The View: “Yikes! It’s like a Hitler Youth commercial! Let me tell you how stupid she is: 25% of the voters in Nevada are Hispanic and 80% of them are Mexican. She is a moron, on top of being evil. I’d like to see her try this ad in the South Bronx. Come here, BITCH! …

A conservative group astroturfing themselves as “Latinos For Reform” have launched an ad campaign urging Nevada’s Latino residents not to vote. The ad was widely seen as an effort to hurt the campaign of incumbent Sen. Harry Reid, a Democrat, who is working hard to turn out Latino voters. Mr. de Posoda, who has long worked with the Republican Party, …
