Murkowski will hold a press conference in twenty minutes. Being generous, let’s say there are 7000 valid GOP votes left to be counted. Murkowski would need 61% of them to win. She’s done.

@shushwalshe: Murkowski staffer: "She is calling her family now. It looks like she will come out + concede. That's what we recommended to her."

On another story, 35% of voters say that Sarah Palin’s endorsement was somewhat to very important in their decision but the author says that Palin didn’t play an important part in Miller’s win.

I knew Miller would win. Didn’t like the way the GOP handled it but them getting more egg on their face is a good thing. One more Tea Patriot in office.

Good for Sarah. Some poll said Sarah’s endorsement was practically meaningless? You just keep believing that. Palin bashers seem live on nothing but a steady diet of self-delusion.

Palin 2012 baby.

If she holds true to form, she will do exactly that.

She can’t concede. That would be racist!

Maybe she is announcing that Washington Gov. Chris Gregoire’s team is flying north to help with the re-count?

Let’s hope that she will both concede and support Joe Miller, not sabotage his general election chances in order to get the Democrat elected. (I assume there is a Democrat nominee although I haven’t heard anything about him or her.)

I’m watching Fox news and I don’t want to be seeing Greta and Ollie, I want to see Murkowski concede.
