Ready To Run The Country?

It can’t be pointed out often enough that in two of the biggest Senate races of 2010 — Kentucky and Nevada — the GOP fielded nominees who were so unprepared (read: unqualified) not merely for the office they were seeking but simply as candidates that the powers/consultants-that-be were forced to hide the nominee from the local and national media for weeks. We’ve thoroughly documented Rand Paul’s disastrous debut in the general election race, but in his meager defense at least he still leads in the polls. Sharron Angle seems to be even less ready for primetime, and it’s basically cost her her lead against Harry Reid. Eric Kleefeld takes a closer look at the Angle media “strategy.”
