Grandma Angles Famous Fruitcake Recipe

Las Vegas, NV – While Team Angle attempts to characterize their crazy candidate as a humble grandmother who will meekly walk into the Vegas PBS studio tonight to take on Sen. Reid, the reality is that Sharron Angle is a career politician with extreme views who has been on the ballot every election cycle for the last 15 years.

But nevertheless, in honor of the “grandma” narrative they’re so fond of, Nevada Democrats would like to share Grandma Sharron Angle's secret recipe with our friends in the press corps and the Angle campaign – a tribute to their candidate's nutty (but dangerous) ideas. Here's the recipe. Granted, it's not a tasty one, but neither is the agenda she wants to serve up Nevada.

Ingredients:

·         Lemons – or Lemonade, like the kind a victim would create out of a "lemon situation"  

·         Bananas – like her idea of eliminating Social Security and Medicare

·         Nuts – also known as Second Amendment remedies

·         1/4 cup dark rum corn syrup (Oops, no booze! It should be illegal)

·         2 tons nuclear waste (only a fruitcake would turn Nevada into a nuke dump)

·         Bread crumbs – because that's all veterans would have left after she privatizes the VA

·         Lucky Charms – like the ones kids will need to get a college degree after she abolishes the Department of Education 

·         (De)Mint – for added enjoyment during backroom deals

·         1 fresh Lowden Farms egg (obtain before chicken is rushed to doctor for barter)

·         1/4 cup Sharron Angle’s Crazy Juice (makes everything extremely tasty)

For the low-fat version, cut out Unemployment Insurance.  After all, no ingredient “spoils” faster in Grandma Angle's kitchen.
