Default Nevada Republicans want a do-over; 2/3 wish Angle wasn't their nominee anymore
Las Vegas Review Journal:
http://www.lvrj.com/news/poll--voter...101631283.html

Two-thirds of voters who say they back Sharron Angle wish another Republican had won the nomination, according to a poll for the Las Vegas Review-Journal and 8NewsNow that shows deep dissatisfaction with both the Tea Party pick and U.S. Sen. Harry Reid.

Nearly eight of 10 voters who remain undecided or who don't like Angle or Reid say they, too, would have preferred if the staunch conservative hadn't won the June 8 primary over her more moderate foes. And 58 percent of such nonaligned voters say they wish Reid hadn't won the Democratic nomination, suggesting a majority of Nevadans are unhappy with their choices.

That's still largely good news for Reid and troubling for Angle. A year ago, the unpopular incumbent was thought to be on his way out. Instead, he's locked in a dead heat with a vulnerable GOP opponent as he runs a scorched-earth campaign to portray her as too extreme.


"Republicans thought they had this race in their pockets, but they've seen Harry Reid rise again to make it close," said Brad Coker, head of Mason-Dixon Polling & Research. "The only reason it's close is they've got a candidate who's being seen as a little out of her league."
