Why I Love Sharron Angle!

September 1st, 2010

While standing in line at a Southwest gate in Reno to board a plane to Las Vegas today to do a series of media appearances, I noticed a man wearing a Sharron Angle 2010 sticker on his jacket. I quickly realized that it was Ted Angle, Sharron’s husband and standing right next to him is the next Senator from the great State of Nevada!

I have been in Alaska, Washington, Oregon, and California in the last several weeks organizing some of our other campaigns and people are always curious about Sharron. ”Is she that lady who said that people should take chickens to their doctor?” No that was Sue Lowden. “I heard that she is crazy” no that’s what the liberal media portrays and Harry has spent millions of dollars trying to make people believe.

The Western Representation PAC endorsed Angle because after hours of listening to her and following her career as native Nevadans, we know that Sharron Angle is intelligent, principled, and down to earth. I wonder the last time  that Harry Reid (if ever) saw the inside of a Southwest Airlines 737 or sat in coach.

Sharron Angle understands the complex language of legislation. She could teach classes on parliamentary procedure. More importantly, Sharron Angle is one of us, WE THE PEOPLE! She isn’t flying around the state in private jets or riding in limos. No, Sharron is happy getting around like the rest of us.

I’m tired of these slick talking politicians who from their luxury suits at the Ritz Carlton (here’s looking at you Harry) pretend to be “regular folks”. Washington is full of snake oil salesman posing as polished politicians.

We need people who aren’t afraid to think for themselves or tell the truth even when it hurts. Harry Reid wants you to believe that Social Security is just fine. Sharron Angle has the courage to tell people that the system faces bankruptcy and needs to be fixed. You can’t address the problem of Social Security if you don’t have the courage to admit there is a problem.

As an independent expenditure PAC, campaign finance laws prevented me from speaking to Sharron and Ted about the campaign. I told them that I am extremely proud of what they are doing and that I can’t wait to see them after she wins in November.

Jon Ralston column unfairly blasts Sharron Angle

July 19th, 2010

Nevada Columnist Jon Ralston hit Sharron Angle hard Sunday in his Reno Gazette Journal column.  The column portrays the Angle campaign as woefully unprepared against the brutal and vicious campaign machine of Harry Reid which has been slamming Angle with lies since the day after she won the Primary. Ralston based his attack on the Mason-Dixon group releasing a new poll showing Reid ahead of Angle by 7%. Other polls show a narrow margin but indicate that the attack ads being run by Reid and his support groups are having a negative effect on Angle’s image.

Sharron Angle’s campaign may have made a few missteps so far but I believe there is enough time for her to convince voters that the lies flooding from the Reid camp are just more “smear politics”. Voters are tired of politicians who do not stand for the issues important to most Americans. Nevada voters will know where Sharron stands on these issues before the November election. We already know where Harry Reid stands; for his own power. It is clear that there is no standard of decency and debate in American politics. There is also no meaner or dirtier campaigner than Harry Reid. Reid is able to build a campaign on lies thanks to a complicit and biased media who refuse to call him on his tactics. To his credit, Ralston did elude to some of Reid’s campaign accusations attack being a bit harsh but stopped short of calling them lies.

Reid knows that standing alone on his record will not win him reelection. He is depending on creating enough negative pressure on Angle that people will either stay away from the polls altogether or check the box reading “none of these candidates”. There are also several third party candidates to choose from helping Reid more than Angle. Sharron Angle is the right candidate at the right time for the unique problems facing America right now. Attacking her for not being a polished yet do nothing politician will do nothing to stop a government that has grown too large with reckless spending that is destroying the future of our children and grandchildren.

Mr. Ralston may prefer candidates who are able to speak for hours without telling us anything about who they are or what they are going to do. If we care about our future, Nevada needs to elect a genuine patriot who understands the issues at stake or we all are going down with the ship, including him. Journalists should refrain from sensationalizing a few words for their entertainment value, allowing candidates to correct a few words taken out of context rather than crucifying them for it.

Grassroots power cannot be ignored

June 3rd, 2010

If there was ever a question of the power of the grassroots movement sweeping America, they have been put to rest today with polls showing that Sharron Angle is now leading the Nevada Senate race! When we endorsed her, she polled at only 5%. Angle is now leading the other frontrunners by 8% and is poised to upset the establishment next Tuesday by winning the State’s Primary Election.

It is the support of every day Americans like you that made this possible. The traditional campaign money went to the “chosen” candidate leaving the Angle campaign without the needed funding to be a contender in the race. Your contributions and the support of nearly every Conservative organization in the nation made this possible.

Sharron Angle is the proven Conservative that will stand up to Washington special interests and represent the American people. She will represent us. Sharron Angle is the candidate that will defeat Harry Reid in November and begin to return America to “We the People”.

We want to thank our supporters for championing Conservative values and encourage each of you to stay involved in the political process. We cannot afford to let our guard down. We need to work hard to see that the momentum we have achieved continues through November and beyond until our elected officials understand that we will not longer tolerate politics as usual.

Our message to sitting politicians is simple, honor the oath you swore to represent the people and protect the Constitution or we will remove you. For those candidates running for office the message is much the same. If you run on this promise, we will hold you accountable if you break it.

Our promise to you is to keep fighting for you. We will not rest until every corrupt politician is removed from office. Our voices are loudest when we shout together and nothing is going to drown that voice.

Keep up the great work Patriots and together we WILL make a difference! We WILL take America back!

Tea Party candidate Sharron Angle surges past Tarkanian and it’s now near a dead heat with Lowden

May 13th, 2010

New polling shows that the race to defeat Harry Reid has made a monumental shift in just a few short weeks. A few weeks ago most polls seemed to indicate that Sue Lowden had all but wrapped up the GOP Primary. Today’s poll by Mason Dixon shows that Sharron Angle has now blown by Danny Tarkanian and is nearly tied with Lowden.

Last Month’s Mason Dixon’s poll, just before the Tea Party Express endorsement:
Lowden: 45%
Tarkanian: 27%
Angle: 5%

Sharron Angle’s endorsement by the Tea Party Express thrust Angle into the national spotlight and started building huge momentum with other key endorsements by Mark Levin, Gun Owners of America, Western Representation PAC, Joe the Plumber, and nearly 20 other endorsements.

Angle also continued her incredible winning streak in straw polls across the state, but the question remained: Would the Tea Party support be able to move Sharron Angle in the polls?

This morning we got our answer. Mason Dixon (the same poll) released a poll today that shows just what Tea Party support can accomplish!

Lowden: 30%
Angle: 25%
Tarkanian: 22%

In less than a month Angle has moved ahead of Tarkanian and turned a 40 point deficit against Lowden into an absolute dead heat.

Western Representation PAC endorses Sharron Angle for US Senate

May 9th, 2010

Over the last several months we have watched and interviewed every major candidate running to defeat Harry Reid in November’s Nevada Senate election. We have looked hard at each candidate’s current platform as well as their past record. We find things we like about other candidates but our search keeps leading us to the same name as the best candidate to represent the people of Nevada: Sharron Angle.

A recent poll conducted by Anger is Brewing shows that the grassroots are clearly on the side of Angle, she keeps winning straw poll after straw poll conducted at candidate forums, events, and by conservative organizations. The Western Representation PAC is proud to join with other Nevada organizations who have endorsed Sharron Angle including: Nevada Republican Assembly, Nevada Homeschool Network, Nevada Concerned Citizens, the Las Vegas Tribune, KLAV Radio’s Leon Catlett.

In addition many national conservative leaders and organizations have endorsed Sharron Angle including the Tea Party Express, Gun Owners of America, Conservative Radio Host Mark Levin, Conservative Icon Phyllis Schlafly, “Joe The plumber”, Pat Boone, Citizens United and many more.

Sharron served four terms in the Nevada Legislature where she led the fight to keep taxes low and limit the expansion of government programs. Looking back it becomes clear that if more of our State representatives would have led with the same responsible ethics, Nevada would not be faced with a $3.5 billion dollar budget deficit next year.

During the 2003 legislative while she served as minority whip of the State Assembly, Sharron blocked then Governor Kenny Guinn from nullifying the State Constitutional requirement of a 2/3 vote to raise taxes. In a fight that took some of her own financial resources, she successfully sued the Governor, all the way to the United States Supreme Court, keeping the majority vote requirement and the will of the people intact. For her tenacity in fighting for what is right, Sharron was awarded the “Ronald Reagan Freedom Medallion” from the Claremont Institute in 2004. It should be noted that the Governor was also a Republican, proving that Sharron is not above holding members of her own party accountable to their principles and to the people.

“I have been involved in political campaigns for many years and I have never met a politician with more integrity and desire to represent her constituents than Sharron Angle”, said Roger Stockton, Western Representation PAC Treasurer. “Although I did not know her personally until recently, Sharron Angle was always the name that stood out in fighting the corrupt political machines of Nevada”.

Our Nation is in crisis and we need leaders who will stand up to the special interest groups and powerful political machines to fight for “We the People”.  Sharron Angle has proven that her vote cannot be purchased, leaving us no question that she will fight for us in Washington DC. Her campaign slogan says it best; “Read my record, not my lips”. We encourage every Nevadan to take a good look at Sharron’s record for yourself and help us replace Harry Reid with a true Conservative who places her principles, our Constitution and the people before politics.
