That of course is our old friend sharon angle. if dean heller had to defend his seat against sharon angle, nevada's last republican senate candidate, how would dean heller do in that race? look, look? he'd win 84% to 8%. he would beat her by 76 points. wow. when this same match-up actually happened in real life, in a congressional primary in 2006, heller only beat her by one point. now he's up by 76. nice. so that's dean heller's good news today. dean heller's bad news today is that mr. heller is due to arrive in the united states senate next week. where senate majority leader, fellow nevadan,...
