Sharron Angle Ad Attacks Harry Reid While Vilifying Latinos (VIDEO)

Sharron Angle and Harry Reid are entangled in a neck-and-neck race for Nevada's Senate seat, and the Republican nominee is out with another vicious ad that links the Senate Majority Leader to threatening Latinos.

In the new ad, "The Wave," a narrator warns of "waves of illegal aliens streaming across our border, joining violent gangs, forcing families to live in fear." Accompanying the message is footage of intimidating-looking Latinos strolling down a dark alley. The ad cuts to a black-and-white photo of four hostile men, one of whom is holding a gun. Continuing, the narrator delivers the rest of the message as unflattering pictures of Reid are mixed with ominous photos of more Latinos.

And what's Harry Reid doing about it? Voting to give illegal aliens social security benefits, tax breaks and college tuition. Voting against declaring English our national language twice, and even siding with Obama and the president of Mexico to block Arizona's tough new immigration law. Harry Reid. It's clear whose side he's on, and it's not yours.

Angle's ad is especially brazen as it comes on the heels of a bizarre exchange in which she unconvincingly denied that one of her other immigrant-bashing spots clearly showed Latinos.

On Sunday, Rachel Maddow blasted Angle on "Meet the Press" for running "the most overtly racist ad" of 2010, which showed "a group of white college students being menaced by some tough-looking Latinos."

Angle has repeatedly proven unafraid to vilify Latinos in her campaign ads. Scroll down to see the latest.

I don’t understand why Ms. Angle dislikes Latinos. Almost a 1/3 of the Nevada population is Latino. But she makes it clear in her ads. How does she plan to stand up for the people she represents?

And some of them are even legal! Of course it may occur to some of those folks that illegal immigration is not a good thing.

I posted something here yesterday that didn't conform to the left ideals of open borders and it has been removed. So much for the left wings tolerance of other views. If you would like to live in socialist country go and live in one stop trying to turn America into a socialist society. The vast majority of us DON'T WANT SOCIALISM.....so go practice it where it already exists...

Has anyone ever really look into the relationship between,the enforcing of immigration laws and the economy? Do you guys ever sit down and seriously think about the budget short fall in the states that are very vigilant in enforcing the law on these people ? These folks cannot claim tax returns, but they do pay ylmp0taxes ,they need all the ammenities that we already have ,like cars, house and such like, now these people are gone in hiding , who will fill this gap in our economy? Cutting off our nose to spite our face not a good idea. Our laws must be enforced ,but not to our detriment.

OMG. I am amazed. But I should not be. This is the election season of the Nimrod. Truly. It is like the racists and pea brains have teamed up in the elections of 2010.

I certainly would not want someone who thinks about Americans like this to be senator.

But maybe it is because my Mom and her family were jailed during WWII for being Japanese.

But they're not Americans, they're Mexicans. Not Mexican-Americans, Mexicans, from Mexico, entering the country illegally. Do you get that point? It's like calling bank robbers "undocumented bank customers."

I don't see what is so racist about this video. As an Arizonan, illegal aliens is a serious issue causing immense criminal activity in our communities. She is honest in addressing a grave problem and is not afraid to be Un-PC.

"I dont see what is so racist about this video. As an Arizonan..." If you dont like Illeagal migrants working in America, keep businesses from hireing them. But of course a bagger like Angle would never do such a thing. Instead its easier to make people afraid of "minority gangsters." Since youre an Arizonan i doubt you follow that logic.

The problem with this racist propaganda is that there a individuals that are really gullible and ignorant about the fact that NOT ALL LATINOS are illegal or engage in criminal behavior! So to project this absurdity and blatant racist dogma is unwarranted and could result in innocent people getting hurt! Remember their are people like Angle that really believe that the Mexicans are going to tame over the country or is it the Asians?

[Rena Lanford]

Why clearly, those are Asians, like Sharron Angle herself!

It is my prayer that on November 2nd that every Latino brother and sister go to the polls and VOTE to sit this crazy lady down. Remember they go one group at time. Who will be next.

GET OUT AND VOTE FOR REID ON NOVEMBER 2ND. DO YOU WANT TO GO BACKWARDS?

This woman is sick, sick, sick. She is a hate monger who does not deserve any elective office anywhere, anytime. Surely the good people of Nevada will see her evil personality and send her packing to the hills, not to DC.

From Nevada:

As an American and Latino I find this ad offensive. What I find more offensive is that Angle now is releasing a radio ad and mailers in spanish. So, she spits in our face and then wants our vote? It is not going to happen.

Over 10,000 new registered Latinos in Nev. We will make sure she goes down in flames!
