I've heard from a couple of different Hill sources that Murtha is ahead; that newly elected Democrats favor Hoyer by a 2:1 margin, but that Murtha is ahead by about 25 votes overall, which has come about from the standing members after Nancy Pelosi's letter. The vote is Thursday.
TOPICS: News/Current Events; Politics/Elections

If Bush wanted to stand up to the DemoRats (yeah, like that'd happen!) he'd order the Intelligence Services to deny Hastings all classifed materials on the basis that he's a known security risk who accepted bribes. Then let the Rats either knuckle under or defend Hastings.

Watching that video, you see the real MurthaExactly, and the scary thing is 6 out of 10 voters in the 12th district didn't care.

Should have listened to Sean Hannity today.

The irony of Murtha becoming House Majority Leader could only be surpassed if it were revealed that John Wayne Gacy had been a Scoutmaster.

Did you hear Rangel dance around this on Hannity's Radio Show?

Thanks I read it incorrectly. So the new conservatives want Hoyer and the old timers want Murtha?

Best news I've heard since last Tuesday. With Dingy Harry ensconced at the top of the Senate the Democrats could not have done more to turn their own proclomations about corruption into a big political mallet for the GOP to beat them upside the head.
Go Murtha!

Murtha skated on that. It's too bad he didn't take the bribe and arrested.
