Get elected one and incumbency does the rest. I see no talent, I see a reckless felon without any principles. His state elects Republican senators because they want the party's policies, not because he is the most virtuous man in his state, which he transparently is not.

You are reckless when you call a man with a misdemenor a felon. People without any accomplishments often demean those of others. I have seen it hundreds of times. People who are more secure can see and admire the talent and accomplishments of others.. It is not a pretty sight. As O’Reilly said tonight. Those who celebrate the destruction of the Craig’s life need to look inside themselves. It is rotten there. Apparently he displayed political skills in college when he was elected student body president.

Exactly, and he gave it to them for 27 years, means he got voted in 27/6 times!!!!! I don't think they're ready to throw him overboard just yet. When the hoppla subsides, we can judicate the matter.
