Sharron Angle, the Republican former Nevada state Representative who lost her campaign last year against Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, has been working to keep herself in the limelight — most notably with a recent visit to Iowa. But interestingly, she has now distanced herself from a PAC that was associated with her, the Patriot Caucus PAC.
As Jon Ralston reports, Angle put out a statement yesterday, which “clarified,” in the release’s words, her relationship with the PAC. “I had originally lent my name to this PAC to help them start-up so that they could assist in organizing TEA Party efforts and local conservative grass-roots GOTV (Get-Out-the-Vote) efforts,” Angle writes.
“They are off to a good start. I am pleased to have been of assistance. I was not, and am not now, involved in their decision-making processes.
“I am working on several projects and will announce them, as I update my website: www.sharronangle.com.”
