Sharron Angle endorses Santorum; 28 people show up (with pic)
http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/2012/feb/04/sharron-angle-finds-her-endorsement-packs-little-pOn Friday night, Sharron Angle made her first public appearance on behalf of Rick Santorum since officially endorsing him for president, headlining a solo rally at Santorum’s headquarters.
Twenty-eight people showed up. That’s including her handlers, Santorum’s local staff, and one attendee’s two kids.
Stepping up to a microphone and smiling, Angle tried to make the best of an obviously bad situation.
... It is difficult to determine for whom this pathetic display of support on the eve of a caucus should be more disappointing: Santorum, whose expectations for Nevada have been so low that he’s essentially abandoned his campaign operation here since initial campaign stops Tuesday that drew modest crowds, or Angle, the Tea Party’s once-greatest hope — this is the first large-scale endorsement she’s made since challenging Harry Reid in 2010.
