Could Sharron Angle, the Republican former Nevada state Representative who lost her campaign last year against Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid after she made such hard-right comments as alluding to the people’s “Second Amendment remedies” against the government, now have her eye on a presidential campaign?

Angle was in the key first presidential caucus state of Iowa last night, to attend a premiere of a Christian movie called The Genesis Code, about a young man and his love interest trying to reconcile religious faith with scientific facts (on the idea there must be some misunderstanding about them being in conflict at all).

And while she was there, the question was asked whether she might run for president — which she didn’t rule out!

The Des Moines Register reports:

“I’ll just say I have lots of options for the future, and I’m investigating all my options,” Angle said before a couple hundred people sat down to watch the premiere of “The Genesis Code,” a $5 million film that aims to present a controversial view on religious freedom and on the balancing act between faith and science.

Angle will not be making the trip to New Hampshire. Instead, in brief remarks to the crowd, she said she’ll be caring for her 88-year-old father. But she didn’t rule out the possibility of returning to Iowa soon.

“Please, just invite me back,” she said to Iowans.
