prediction..he’ll die in office when his car hits a moose when he is back in AK and Palin will take over!

Oh, the irony.
[How can a convicted felon be reelected to office in a year which favors Democrats?]
Perhaps they are not as heavily innudated with illegal immigrants and acorn democrat socialists as the rest of America is now. It is just a matter of time.
The frog is cooking and is almost dead.
It is time to remember God and pray and humble ourselves lest we all are destroyed together.
Amazing. This country keeps electing crooks.
Perhaps you should ask Ted Kennedy's constituents.
Do you think Sarah will appoint me to be the new senator from Alaska? I’m not a resident, but hell, we don’t have rules any more and I’m willing to serve.
Somehow I don't think Ben Stevens would cut it.
A question for anyone who knows:
If Stevens is re-elected and then is expelled or forced to resign from the Senate, does Sarah get to appoint his successor? Or is there a special election?
Alaska gets it! Mark and his hollyweird buddies lost!
That might be the explanation, but if I were an Alaska voter, my explanation would be a little more calculated. Stevens is not going to make it thru 6 years. Palin will appoint his successor, and whoever it is will be a conservative Republican—possibly Palin herself.
The best part of the whole election night was seeing Stevens win.
God bless Sarah Palin!
Alaskans didn’t vote for Ted Stevens - they voted for a Republican. They want a Republican representing them in the Senate. They’ll get one whether or not Stevens is expelled or resigns.
How long before Stevens’s corruption conviction forces him to resign or get ousted (each house is the ultimate judge of its own membership) and Sarach gets to appoint a clean new Senator?
Would she take it herself?
His crime, not reporting work done without charge on his home, was relatively small when it came to the specific amount of dollars involved.
His election, thankfully, helps to keep a filibuster margin by Senate Republicans. He will step aside for another Republican when the times comes.
Alaskans know all this.
What a crock! Ted won purely on his record, no thanks at all to Sarah. SP was conspicuous in her lack of support for Ted, he won in spite of her. The people of Alaska sent a message to the DC kangaroo court that convicted Ted with an OJ jury and a corrupt prosecution hit team working for pelosi and reid. Begich was the schumer butt boy financed and promoted to get the dem socialists a super majority.
GOOD!
We need his resignation pronto and put in a good, solid, young conservative.
Sean Parnell?
