I'm sensing a few things here. One, Harry Reid's opponent Sharron Angle is a bit dumb. Two, she's a bit strong-headed, as someone on staff must have told her that the last thing she needs to do is help Reid publicize her wacky earlier statements - which is exactly what she's doing, by sending Reid a cease-and-desist. From The Hill:
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) and Republican nominee Sharon Angle traded jabs over the weekend after Angle's campaign took legal action to prevent her opponent from re-posting an old version of her campaign website on the Internet.
Reid's campaign still mocked the letter as a "threat of a frivolous lawsuit" and took a parting shot of its own.You can find the site here: http://www.sharronsundergroundbunker.com/
“These are Sharron Angle’s positions in Sharron’s own words from Sharron’s own website. What was good enough for Nevada voters to read during the primary should be good enough for them now,” said Reid campaign spokesman Jon Summers.
