Angle is completely nuts, Harry Reid's chances just improved dramatically with her win.

Well not quite a lawsuit, I believe she filed a "criminal complaint", she says so
here if you can stand listening to her for 7 minutes!
Click on the link on the right where it says Orly Taitz vs Damon Dunn.

Edit: But birther plaintiff Pamela Barnett did file suit...

I guess i'm not a certified "birfer." I didn't even know she was running for office, which is an amazing feat considering I follow politics closely and - yes - even watch Fox News occasionally.

Electoral-vote.com: Election news:

-Angle as a loopy extremist who was often the "1" in state assembly votes that passed 40 to 1. She is not well known in Clark County (where Las Vegas is) and where 2/3 of the voters are. She has some positions that are going to be tough to explain when Reid brings them up. For example, she supports storing the nation's nuclear wastes in Nevada, something Reid and nearly all the state's voters strongly oppose. It doesn't take a lot of imagination to envision ads saying "the only thing stopping the federal government from moving tons of toxic radioactive waste into your neighborhood is Harry Reid."-
She was well known enough to win the primary over at least 2 other main stream candidates. I am going to laugh like hell since Reid thinks he has this thing wrapped up. It is going to be hilarious when someone from the far right beats him and takes his seat come November.

And I'm going to laugh even harder when people in her own state want her recalled because she wants to repeal the 21st Amendment.

If I am still here I will. Well seeing how the votes were not counted as combined I guess it don't really matter. The fact remains thousands and thousands of people liked her the most. She is the complete opposite of Reid.
