WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid leads his Republican rival Sharron Angle by 48 percent to 44 percent among likely Nevada voters, a Reuters-Ipsos poll found Tuesday.

Reid led Tea Party favorite Angle 52 percent to 36 percent among registered voters, but when the likelihood of actually voting was considered, his lead slipped to just 4 percentage points, 48 percent to 44 percent, the poll showed.

The poll of 600 Nevada voters July 30-August 1 also found that 74 percent believe the economy is the state's biggest problem, and 63 percent favor an immigration law like Arizona's that would enable police to check the status of people they stop.

1. Day after the primary, Angle had a 10 point lead...

then she opened her mouth.

2. By the time election day comes around, he'll win by a comfortable margin

She continues to implode...

3. Pretty amazing as Reid was almost considered dead a few months ago.

Angle truly was a gift.

4. Against such a total nutcase as Angle, he only leads by 4 points.

What is wrong with Nevada? For that matter, what is wrong with the U.S.?

(Rhetorical questions alert -- yes, we all know what is wrong.)

5. Hard to believe he only has a

4 point lead. I don't like Reid as a Majority leader but what the hell is up with Angle being so close. She's a nut case and still gets 44%. What have we become, or Nevada anyway.
