How is it possible that the worst, and least qualified, United States senator in the history of the Republic, could possibly be re-elected???

I don't think that Stabenow is guaranteed reelection, though she starts out the favorite.

Is this supposed to be a surprise or what? We're talking about Kalifornia here.

She's Mr. Stabby's little sister, you know.

Did we give up when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

You have a LOT of people competing for that title.

Whoops! And I knew that! Nice catch. But! All Commies are the same to me and it really doesn't matter where they are from. The are all part of one big anti-American organism out to destroy America.

I cannot imagine why ANY politician in Michigan would get re-elected...

I don't pay that much attention to Michigan...but, it seems that what I do hear is that the state is not doing really well...

Of course, if that idiot Mayor of Detroit can get re-elected...I guess there is no reason to expect Stabenow or the Levins to be ousted.

You said: "How is it possible that the worst, and least qualified, United States senator in the history of the Republic, could possibly be re-elected???"

Look at California and Washington State. Then look at Michigan, see a pattern here?

Well, Washington State has two of the top five, and California has one - but I think Stabenow is a special case. I don't think Murray, who is clearly #2, is even really close.

Lincoln Chaffee (Rino-RI)
Debbie Stabmenow (D-MI)
Patty Murray (D-WA)
Barbara Boxer (D-CA)

I saw another poll that had Stabenow 45%, Bouchard 34%, which is outstanding for Bouchard.

I'm not gonna get my hopes up, but this could definately be the upset incumbent of the year a'la Dashle or Cleland.

Michigan is a lost cause. Should just join Ontario and be done with it.
