Harry Reid To Try To Pass DREAM Act During Lame Duck Session

Stunts like trying to pass the DREAM Act during the lame duck session (the time between the election and when new Senators take over their positions) is the exact type of disrespect Harry Reid has shown to the American public since he became Senate Majority Leader and why many want to see Sharron Angle defeat Reid in the Nevada Senate race.

“The DREAM Act would give a group of young immigrants here without immigration status through no fault of their own the chance to attend college, serve in the military and earn citizenship,” said Frank Sharry, executive director of America’s Voice. “These valedictorians, future scientists and future soldiers are Americans in all but paperwork, and we are thrilled that Senator Reid is committed to moving this common-sense measure before the end of the year.”

“We support and will be looking for viable efforts to pass the DREAM Act after the election,” said Center for American Progress Vice President for Immigration Policy Advocacy Angela Kelley. “In order for that to happen however, like-minded Republicans will have to step forward and show their support for this modest measure to provide relief to young people. There hasn’t been a lot to suggest that bipartisan constructive conversation on immigration is possible, but I’d love to be proven wrong.”

Notice how they use the term "young people"?

To be eligible for the DREAM Act, illegal immigrants must be between the ages of 12 and 35 at the time the bill is enacted.

Reid tried attaching the DREAM Act to the Defense Bill and it was filibustered and now he is promising to bring it back up during the lame duck session, amazingly enough, this announcement is made right before Tuesday's election... subtle huh?

Republicans that even consider joining in or helping this bill pass in any way, shape or form, during the lame duck session, would be smart to remember exactly what is happening to Democrats this election cycle by passing legislation the majority of Americans were opposed to. Because in 2012, I guarantee voters, the Republican's constituents WILL REMEMBER and will replace them also.

If Reid loses his reelection bid, he not only loses his Senator status in January but he can no longer damage our country with his back room deals and bribe and showing complete disdain for voters of this country by abusing his Senate Majority Leader status with these type of stunts.

In between November and January though, Reid could do a lot of damage unless we stay on our Senators and Representatives.

Sharron Angle Poised To Defeat Harry Reid In Nevada Senate Race

First the first time we see, via Real Clear Politics, three separate polls from different polling organizations, all conducted in late October, showing Sharron Angle with a four point lead over the Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.

The polls:

LVRJ/Mason-Dixon- Angle 49 percent, Reid 45.
Rasmussen Reports- Angle 49 percent, Reid 45.
CNN/Time- Angle 49 percent, Reid 45.

If Angle wins, this will be the biggest upset in the 2010 election and as the latest Sharron Angle ad shows (shown above), her closing argument to the people of Nevada is simply to tie Harry Reid to Barack Obama stating at the end, "it's our turn."

Via Las Vegas Review Journal, we see that handicapper and director of the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia, Larry Sabato, has rated Nevada as "leaning GOP," although he readily admits Nevada is one of the hardest races to call at this point.

Larry Sabato, director of the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia, is one of the few national pundits to risk predicting Angle could pull off the biggest upset of the 2010 election. On Thursday, he put out his "crystal ball" picks that has the Nevada race leaning GOP for the first time.

"Of all our predictions, I'm least certain about the Senate race in Nevada," Sabato acknowledged in an interview. "Our assumption is, independents around the country have moved solidly behind the Republicans. But the Democrats are throwing everything they've got at the effort to save Reid. If Reid survives, it will be an escape worthy of Houdini. If Angle wins, it's a measure of the strong anti-Democratic trends of the 2010 mid-term elections.

"This is a referendum on Reid and Obama."

Angle gets 85 percent of the Republican vote and Reid 84 percent of the Democratic vote and Angle holds a double digit lead over Reid with Independents, 55 percent to 38 percent.

This one is going down to the wire and Democrats have been throwing everything but the kitchen sink at Nevada to help drag Reid over the finish line, yet polling patterns show Angle still continuing to pick up percentage points, albeit one-to-two points at a time.

Angle vs Behar- Genius Response On The Part Of Angle

Long story short, Joy Behar the Godzilla of The View, called Sharron Angle a bitch on air and said she was going to hell, with much criticism from women's groups heaped on Behar for doing so as well as the show itself for allowing Behar's outburst to go without reprimand nor insistence that she apologize.

Caught up? Good.

Sharron Angle in an act of brilliance sent Joy Behar a lovely flower arrangement with a little note attached saying:

"Joy, Raised $150,000 online yesterday. Thanks for your help. Sincerely, Sharron"

Behar was not amused, although many others seem to be, and reiterated her comments in response.

Sharron Angle's gesture was genius and made a point well made, no matter how you feel about her.

SCORE - Angle.

Joy Behar just became a major campaign fundraiser for Sharron Angle. That is irony!

Nevada Senate Race Heating Up With Allegations of Bribery And Voting Machine Errors

Early voting has started and one of the most competitive races is in Nevada where Senate Majority leader Harry Reid is trailing behind Republican challenger Sharron Angle according to the last two polls conducted by LVRJ/Mason-Dixon and Rasmussen Reports by two and four points respectively.

The video above shows a Nevada voter for Sharron Angle claiming that when she and others went to cast their vote for Angle the box next to Harry Reid's name was already checked in the latest reports coming out of Nevada.

Voter Joyce Ferrara said when they went to vote for Republican Sharron Angle, her Democratic opponent, Sen. Harry Reid's name was already checked.

Ferrara said she wasn't alone in her voting experience. She said her husband and several others voting at the same time all had the same thing happen.

"Something's not right," Ferrara said. "One person that's a fluke. Two, that's strange. But several within a five minute period of time -- that's wrong."

Earlier complaints were already being made by Angle's attorney, Cleta Mitchell, as evidenced by a letter published by The Las Vegas Sun, where Mitchell states "Reid “intends to steal this election if he can’t win it outright."

As Sharron Angle's campaign attorney, I am sorry to report that the Democrats and their cronies are up to their same old tricks, of trying to manipulate the election in hopes of skewing the results in their favor.

Two days ago, the Democratic Secretary of State announced that voters can be provided "free food" at "voter turnout events." Harry Reid has been offering free food and, according to other reports, some Democratic allies such as teachers' unions are offering gift cards in return for a vote for Reid.

Before we were even able to document the reported infractions to report to the authorities, the Democrat Secretary of State slammed the door shut on preventing this behavior and issued a public statement permitting these ACORN-style tactics. THESE are the kinds of shenanigans that can turn this race.

Read the rest.

The Nevada News Bureau confirms Matt Griffin, deputy secretary of state for elections, said Nevada law does not automatically prohibit a campaign or candidate from offering food to those who attend “get out the vote” rallies aimed at increasing voter participation.

As long as the food is not predicated upon voting for a particular candidate or ballot question, the event would comply with state law, he said.

Six days away from election day and already tensions are high as the early voter turnout in Nevada indicates trouble for Harry Reid.

October 21- WTOP:

While Democrats so far make up about 46 percent of those who've cast ballots in Las Vegas' Clark County, compared with 38 percent for Republicans, the Democrats' 8-point advantage is down from 22 points in 2008. And Republicans, who make up a third of the county's registered voters, are turning out in numbers that exceed their share of the electorate this time.

In Reno's Washoe County, where voter registration is about evenly split between the two parties, early voter turnout favors Republicans 47 percent to 40 percent. The two Nevada counties make up more than 80 percent of the state's electorate; the rest of the state's counties are sparsely populated and heavily Republican.

October 24- KOLOTV:

Republicans turned out in slightly larger numbers than Democrats during the first week of early voting in Nevada.

Nevada's senate race will undoubtedly go down to the wire with every last vote being counted and fought over and every indicator shows that the end results will be very close.

Although political junkies will be watching every race with control of the House of Representatives and the Senate up for grabs, Nevada is one race that is being watched even more closely because Harry Reid is the Senate Majority leader and a loss for Reid, whether the GOP takes control of the Senate or not, means Reid will no longer hold that position as of January 2011.

Nevada Senate Race: Angle 50 Percent, Reid 47

With midterms just two weeks away, Sharron Angle is ahead of Harry Reid in the Nevada Senate race by 3 percentage points, according to the latest Rasmussen poll.

A new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Likely Voters in the state finds Angle with 50% to Reid’s 47%. Two percent (2%) prefer another candidate in the race, and one percent (1%) are undecided. (To see question wording, click here.)

The race remains a Toss-Up in the Rasmussen Reports Election 2010 Senate Balance of Power rankings.

A week ago, Angle held an insignificant 49% to 48% lead in a contest that has been marked for months by its closeness. In seven of eight surveys prior to this one since July, Reid and Angle have been three points apart or less. Both have hit the 50% mark one time.

The last poll, conducted by LVRJ/Mason-Dixon, had Angle ahead by 2 percent.

Angle has also managed to get late support as she raked in $14 million during her third quarter (July 1 to September 30).

Open Secrets explains how astounding a take that really is using comparisons:

But back to that $14 million. Just how big a figure is that? Well, consider this: Only seven candidates managed to raise more than $14 million during the entire 2008 election cycle, according to the Center for Responsive Politics’ research. According to Politico, only two federal-level candidates have raised more during a three-month cycle. They are Republican Rick Lazio, who raised $22 million in the third quarter of 2000 in a U.S. Senate campaign in New York against Democrat Hillary Clinton, and now-Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.), who raised $14.2 million during his race for U.S. Senate.

Angle and Reid's one and only debate resulted in almost every pundit and media outlet declaring Angle the big winner, even those that endorsed Harry Reid grudgingly admitted she won the debate handily.

Nevada is the one Senate race this election cycle that means the most across the country, not just important to Nevadans, because replacing Reid as Nevada's Senator also dumps him from his position as Senate Majority Leader, to which he has used and abused heavily over the last few years.

Nevada Senate: Debate- Newspaper That Endorsed Harry Reid Admits Sharron Angle Won Debate

On October 10, 2010, the Las Vegas Sun formally endorsed Harry Reid and today that same paper headlines with "Reid lost the debate to Angle."

In their original endorsement they portrayed Sharron Angle as extreme as Harry Reid's attack ads have been doing consistently, but last night the two candidates each had a specific goal.

Reid's goal was to give Nevada voters a reason to reelect him and Angle's goal was to show she was not the lunatic Reid portrayed her to be and was not extreme.

Reid failed his goal and Angle succeeded in hers.

Las Vegas Sun:

Let’s get the easy part out of the way first:

Sharron Angle won The Big Debate.

Angle won because she looked relatively credible, appearing not to be the Wicked Witch of the West (Christine O’Donnell is the good witch of the Tea Party) and scoring many more rhetorical points. And she won because Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid looked as if he could barely stay on a linear argument, abruptly switching gears and failing to effectively parry or thrust.

The LA Times' Top of the Ticket has an excellent topic-by-topic recap for readers.

Sherman Frederick writes for the Las Vegas Review-Journal, which endorsed Sharron Angle and headlines today with "Angle mops the floor with Reid."

While both candidates -- Sharron Angle and Harry Reid -- started out slow and tight in their debate this evening, by debate close it was clear: Angle mopped the floor with Reid.

She hit hard on a variety of topics; showed she had the fire to be a U.S. Senator; demonstrated a command of the issues; and, of course, stayed gaffe free.

Reid meanwhile looked tired. Sounded entitled. He mixed up the Department of Education with the Department of Energy. Couldn't find his notes for the close and generally fell back on talking points on far too many questions.

The New Republic, never a bastion of conservative thought, headlines with "Reid My Lips: Last Night Was a Disaster," sub header "The Senate majority leader should've stayed home. "

Why Harry Reid agreed to have a debate with Sharron Angle is a bit of a mystery to me. If your campaign is based on portraying your opponent as loony, then why give that opponent a chance to look reasonable? Lyndon Johnson never debated Barry Goldwater. Then again, I’m no political strategist. And neither, I’ve come to see, is Harry Reid. So let’s focus on what matters now: that a debate was held in Nevada last night between Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and his Republican challenger Sharron Angle. And its upshot was—sorry, folks—that Angle improved her chances.

I’m not suggesting that Sharron Angle, having been granted the opportunity to look reasonable, looked reasonable. On the contrary, she was very much herself—smiling maniacally in her crimson suit and hurling out bizarre fictions. But she looked reasonable enough. Lies about policy don’t really hurt you in a debate, especially when they’re voiced with conviction. What hurts you is looking evasive and squishy. Sharron Angle provided the lies. Harry Reid provided the squish.

Both Ralston at Las Vegas Sun and Frank at the New Republic, both show disdain for Angle in every word, yet both feel compelled to admit Sharron Angle came out ahead.

If even those that despise Angle admit, grudgingly, that she tore up Reid, then we can bet she helped herself and hurt Harry Reid in last night's debate.

Sharron Angle's Explosive 3rd Quarter Take Of $14 Million

Sharron Angle is ahead of Harry Reid in the latest polls for the Nevada Senate seat and the explosive news today is her amazing draw of $14 million between July 1 and Sept. 30.

"Sharron Angle produced one of the most successful single quarters of fundraising in the nation's history for a U.S. Senate campaign," said Angle communications director Jarrod Agen. "This is a testament to the hatred of Harry Reid, the nation's disapproval of President Obama, and the unprecedented grassroots support for Sharron Angle."

Agen did not provide figures for how much money Angle had left in the bank at the end of September and it's likely to be well less than the $14 million she raised since she relies heavily on a costly and aggressive direct mail fundraising operation.

Reid has yet to release his third quarter fundraising totals but as of mid-summer he had collected just short of $14 million so far in 2010. For the election cycle to date, Reid has raised $18 million.

Despite Harry Reid's aggressive campaigning and attacks against Angle, she is in the lead and now has evened out the money issue to the point where she can match Reid ad for ad, attack for attack.

I have said this before and will continue to reiterate it, Nevada's Senate seat does not only concern Nevadans, but replacing Reid in Nevada removes him as Senate Majority Leader of the United States Senate.

This race concerns every single citizen of the United States of America.

Nevada Senate Seat Race- Angle Takes Lead Over Reid In Last Three Polls

The most recent polls for the Senate race in Nevada between Harry Reid and Sharron Angle have Angle leading Reid by 2, 3 and 4 percent.

CNN/TIME polling from 10-1 to 10-5, 2010 has Sharron Angle up by two percent against Harry Reid.

According to a CNN/Time/Opinion Research Corporation poll released Wednesday, 42 percent of likely voters in Nevada are backing Angle, who enjoys strong support from many in the Tea Party movement, with four in ten supporting Reid, the top Democrat in the Senate who's bidding for a fifth term in the chamber. Seven percent of people questioned are supporting Scott Ashjian, who is running as a Tea Party candidate, but who is shunned by many in the grassroots conservative moment, and 10 percent say they are voting for none of the candidates listed.

Fox News report on 10-5, 2010 shows Angle ahead of Reid by three percentage points.

In the latest Fox News battleground state poll of likely voters, Angle drew 49 percent to Reid’s 46 percent. As voters make up their mind with four weeks to go until Election Day, Angle seems to have the edge.

Rasmussen reports on 10-5, 2010 has Angle ahead of Reid by four percentage points.

Republican challenger Sharron Angle has now moved to a four-point lead over Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid in Nevada’s bare-knuckles U.S. Senate race.

The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Likely Nevada Voters shows Angle hitting the 50% mark for the first time since mid-August, while Reid earns 46% of the vote. Two percent (2%) prefer some other candidate in the race, and two percent (2%) more are undecided. (To see question wording, click here.)

After Angle won the GOP primary, Reid threw everything he had against Angle in attack ad after attacks ad and saw a small bounce which seems to have disappeared now as voters are becoming more set in their choice with less likelihood of changing their minds bring Angle ahead of Reid in polling done in October.

Wake up America has taken a special interest in the Nevada Senate race because it is not just about Nevada, but with Harry Reid being the Senate Majority leader, his decisions and his backroom deals to push through legislation that has been opposed by the majority of Americans, makes this a race that should concern everyone across the country.

The Sharron Angle Tape Is Good For Angle

Latest Sharron Angle ad: 'Real World' (Video below)





Sharron Angle met with third party candidate Scott Ashjian to ask that he step aside in the challenge for the Nevada Senate seat, basically so that they did not cancel each other out and allow Harry Reid to walk away with reelection.

Ashjian recorded the call, then released it to Jon Ralston of the Las Vegas Sun.

Angle had some harsh words for the GOP establishment and spoke very bluntly.

At the meeting’s outset, Ashjian seems open to a deal, suggesting if he can get an apology from the Tea Party Express, “we can get on board.” He claims he does not want money, wants the lawsuits about his candidacy to go away – remember those voicemails from GOP lawyer Cleta Mitchell posted elsewhere on my blog suggest she was trying to “settle” something with him. By the end of the meeting, it’s clear this attempted backroom bargain is going nowhere – and I’m not sure Ashjian ever wanted it to.

There’s a lot more, too, including:

----Angle’s open disgust with her own party’s leaders and principles (or lack thereof)

----James’ obvious abandonment of Ashjian’s candidacy and insistence that Angle will lose unless he withdraws and that there is still time to get his name off the ballot

----Some brief trashing of Sen. John Ensign by Ziser and Ashjian

----Ashjian’s claims of physical threats and of being followed

----Angle’s agreement with him that both major parties are “corrupt”

----Angle’s claim to have taken over the Washoe County Republican Party and having her “guys” in the Clark County GOP

You can read the whole thing for yourself at Las Vegas Sun.

One quick point here is by turning this tape over, it does speak volumes about Ashjian's ethics since Nevada is a state where consent of both parties must consent to being taped in order for a recording to be lawful and Ashjian did not obtain that consent.

The Politico gets to the point quickly in their piece about this:

The recording is worth listening to in full despite its poor quality. It suggests that -- at least for the purposes of this conversation with a Tea Party figure -- behind the facade of a real grassroots outsider who hates the organized Republican Party is ... a real grassroots outsider who hates the organized Republican Party.

Well said.

The tape does not, in any way, show Angle to be anything but what she has claimed she was the entire race.

If anything, I believe this tape will garner Angle more support from Independents, Moderates and Tea Party supporters who want things in Washington to change and know that it takes more than one person to be able to actually make a difference.

Listen to the audio recording.

VIDEO- Sharron Angle Ad: 'Best Friend' -- Harry Reid, The Best Friend An Illegal Alien Ever Had.

With Harry Reid slipping the DREAM ACT amendment into the defense bill, hoping to force a vote for giving amnesty to illegal aliens that are here because their parents broke our laws and brought their children into the US illegally, this Sharron Angle ad is perfect timing in calling Harry Reid the best friend an illegal alien ever had.

Video below:



Text:

Illegals sneaking across our border, putting Americans safety and jobs at risk and what does Harry Reid do?

He comes out opposed to Arizona's tough new immigration law.

Nevada families struggling with the nation's highest unemployment, Harry Reid, he votes to give special tax breaks to illegal aliens and to give the illegals social security benefits... even for the time they were here illegally.

Harry Reid, the best friend an illegal alien ever had.

Angle's press secretary, Jerry Stacy, states "Harry Reid's support for amnesty and his opposition to Arizona's immigration law stands in direct contrast to what the voters of Nevada want. Senator Reid is out-of-touch with Nevadans in his attempts to give incentives to illegal immigrants while his state's unemployment skyrockets to the worst in the nation."

VIDEO- Sharron Angle Ad: 'Delusional'

Angle's ads keep getting better and better and new polling shows she has taken a one point lead over Harry Reid in her bid against Reid for the Nevada Senate seat that Reid holds now.

Angle drew 45 percent support, while Reid took in 44 percent. Five percent opted for "none of these," Nevada's unique ballot option that allows one to vote against all the candidates on offer. And Reid's path to victory depends on growing the number of "none of these" voters.

Reid's low job approval in the survey – 40 percent said he was doing a good job, while 55 percent disagree – helps explain the Democratic strategy of encouraging "none of the above" votes.

An Angle win would not only replace Reid in Nevada but would remove him as Senate Majority leader.

VIDEO- Sharron Angle TV Ad: 'Faces'

Another hard hitting ad out by Sharron Angle against Harry Reid.

Video Below:



Text spoken by Angle:

On Harry Reid's watch Nevada's unemployment rate has shot past 14 percent, highest in the country. Our foreclosure rate is highest in the nation. Home values have dropped almost 50 percent.

Those aren't just numbers, they're people... who have lost their jobs, families who have lost their homes.

Harry Reid has dragged Nevada down to perhaps it's lowest point ever and he wants to call me and extremist?

I'm Sharron Angle and I approved this message.

Rasmussen has Angle up on Reid by two percentage points (with leaners) and Las Vegas Review Journal has Reid up on Angle by one percentage point, both within margin of error and listed as a statistical tie.

Nevada's Senate race is one the whole country is watching closely because Harry Reid is not just the Senator from Nevada, he is also the Senate Majority Leader which makes replacing him a country wide concern, not just a local one.
