Wow, someone has read her Glenn Beck talking points really well.

Hell, when I saw the headline, I figured she'd be saying the guy was a secret lefty plant pretending to support Angle.

Though I guess nothing in the above quote from her rules out the possibility that she's thinking that.

According to the right, Alinsky provided THE blueprint for a commie take-over of the United States. Considering how well this has worked out for the Reds over the last 40 years, you might wonder why the wingnuts consider it a threat at all. By any reasonable standard, Alinsky's Rules for Radicals are a relic of a bygone era, like chunks of the Berlin Wall or something.
The answer is an amazing insight into the alternate reality of wingnut perception: According to them, Alinsky's guidelines succeeded, the lefties did take over and we are living in an essentially socialist, collectivized state. The far right sees itself as a last bastion of resistance to leftist control, like Ukrainian kulaks, and similarly in immediate danger of extinction at the hands of ObamaStalin. In its own addled view, the TP movement is a revolutionary force, attempting to overthrow lefty dominance and restore righteousness and American values.

re: #3 Shiplord Kirel

Not only that. The irony is that the tactics described by Alinsky have been adopted (self-consciously, in part) by the Tea Party itself: causing distractions and generally making a fuss in a way that gives the illusion that your ranks are much bigger than they actually are.

Yeah a man punches a woman and she blames Saul Alinsky. If there was any doubt that Sharron Angle is crazy, this is it. Seriously she could take the high road and say her supporter was wrong and there would be no harm in that but no she blames Saul Alinsky. Seriously what the hell is wrong with hte modern right wing? It's like they think they can do no wrong and everyone who does wrong is an ebil liberal. I am shocked that this race is close and I know Reid isn't great but still Nevada, at least Harry Reid isn't this stupid.
