GOP Angle rewrites policy positions in Nev. race
Source: Associated Press

LAS VEGAS — Republican U.S. Senate candidate Sharron Angle is distancing herself from an unusual foe — her own words.

Angle has repeatedly claimed in recent weeks that she never vowed to end Social Security or federal benefits for veterans.

12. I Contributed As Well To Stop The Insanity
Angle is just crazy. The fact that she campaigning against her own statements, and is hiding from the media, and avoiding interviews just underscores how the Republicans are trying to defraud the public. A candidate who is AVOIDING the media aside from Fox News?

10. Flip Flop
And she's only evolved to 'win'. Eh? At least if she beats Harry she'll have to explain in a few years why SS is still around to the people that voted for her in the primary.
