flashpoint:
Two schools of thought
Tue, Jun 17, 2008 (2 a.m.)
There seem to be two schools of thought about ex-Assembly-
woman Sharron Angle’s challenge to Senate Czar Bill Raggio in the most important legislative primary of the season. School of Thought No. 1: He will crush her, probably by a 2-1 margin. School of Thought No. 2: She is all about door-to-door and in a low-turnout primary in August, anything can happen. No matter which school you subscribe to, it seems as if Sir Bill is taking no chances. The octogenarian legend is trimmer than he has been in years and was walking the district this weekend with his best asset — his wife, Dale. So even if all his pals aren’t taking Angle seriously, Raggio is. And we’ll see just how worried he is by his performance during the special session. Listen carefully.
