"Alaskans would take her back in a minute because they trust what they hear when she speaks."
I'd assumed that also, but then how do you explain the Miller/Murkowski disaster? That should have been a cake walk for Joe.
Separate cultures in Ak. In our community, we have an Indian Village of about 30 Natives and a White town of 100 people. Many of the Indians voted for Miller as they understand the dire problems our Nation faces. In most rural villages, there isn't any economy. All money comes from govt and it is a system and Indians figure that's just how it works. They all voted for Lisa. No different than when 96% of blacks voted for Obama; they don't see the evil he is perpetuating on them; same with the Indians.
If you ever been around Indians, you would know how the alcohol destroys them as a people. In most villages, half the kids die before age of 25, die drunk in house fires, beat each other to death with various objects, shoot up the village drunk,and just from alcohol related problems, suicide, child abuse, on and on; kinda sad; but White Man can't solve the problem we created, they must. Our govt just continues the genocide with money to the villages which pays for the booze.
Wife and I have taught in villages where 90% of the kids were FAS, over half were sexually abused, and 11 year olds were having babies and their close relatives were the father; can you just imagine how it is killing them as a people.
Indians are great people, just going extinct. I once had an Indian boy tell me that White People come in take over, buy up the land, sell booze to the Indians, and pretty quick surround the village and they disappear as a people, complete truth too. They don't know how to stop the process either.
I know Indians who quit the booze for good. I know many more who are dying from it. I actually prefer living near Indians than most rural Whites. Us Whites are awful greedy, dog eat dog. The Indians are better people in many respects; no joke. You got to be the only White Boy in nativeland for a year as the hated, ugly, no good White teacher to begin to understand and respect them for the good they do have. Otherwise, you go into Anchorage and see all the Indians begging money for booze, homeless, and really hate them all.
If they would have voted for the dem as they usually do, Miller would have won big time. Look at all the foolish Americans who voted for Obama, no different and I would have never believed so many would have voted for that black socialist; have to wonder about all those people in the lower 48?
Joe Miller ran a piss poor campaign.
