Tea Party Express, the right-wing group that recently parted ways with their former spokesman Mark Williams over his racially-loaded writings and comments, is getting back into the Nevada Senate race with a radio ad for Sharron Angle.

“Sharron Angle knows we can’t sustain the out of control spending and growth in the size and power of government. Nevada’s leading anti-tax advocate, she led the fight to stop the biggest tax hike in state history,” the announcer says.

The announcer also takes on the touchy issue of Social Security — in which Angle has been hammered for saying she wants to “phase out” the program: “She has the guts to point out our Social Security system is broken, and she’s ready to fix the system before it fails — honoring the commitment we’ve made to seniors.”

The TPM Poll Average currently gives Reid a lead of 45.1%-42.7%.
