. . snip . . The vitriol began boiling over Friday when Miller's campaign accused the National Republican Senatorial Committee of trying to manipulate the outcome of the race by sending lawyer Sean Cairncross to assist Murkowski with legal questions surrounding the ballot count.

just because your paranoid doesn't mean they are not out to get you.
When the NRSC is out to get you, paranoid is just good thinking.
time for republicans to start petitions for Murkowski to retire from the field.
establish her as pure electoral poison.
Where did I hear that quote before?
Of course they're doing that. Any time the "IN" candidate starts to slip, the "Big Boys" send in the "Hired Guns" to try to change the outcome. Just the same way the Dems did in Minnisota to get Frankin in. No surprise either place.
she’s full of sh*t...
Alaska is ONE of the states that is DENYING the military vote.
“She said her lawyers were hired “to make sure that every Alaskan’s vote counts in this election.”
Looks like Lisa even uses the dem playbook. She is no RINO. She is a RINO turd!
So far, it is obvious this woman does not care about the people, Alaska or the US. If she is honorable; she will step down.
No doubt in my mind that Miller is correct. The Hiearchy pushed McCain for President. They supported him in the election this year and McCain is a fence straddler at best and a liberal at worst. He says what he thinks it takes to get elected. I supported McCain the first time he ran against Bush. Since then I have paid attention to him and he is nothing more than a full time politician and elitist like Murkowski. The people should never have the right to dethrone the king or an elitist.This is the thinking of both parties.
‘Is it just me or is the GOP actively throwing away any advantage it had going into November.’
Sure looks like it to me!
I'll bet more Republicans and Republican Moderates voted for Lisa than for Miller.
I think there were lots of Undeclared, Nonpartisan and Alaska Independents who voted for Miller.
That face scream,”You owe me! It’s my seat!”
When an insider like Bob Dole (Rino, KS) donates to Charlie Crist after he leaves the GOP to run as an independent against the republican nominee for Senator, you have to wonder.
Rather a harsh statement FRiend.
Current Alaska law allows absentee ballots that are postmarked by election day - 10 days after election (15 days for overseas) they are counted. Late date or later than 15 days and they are tossed. Sorry, that's the law.
The problem lies in the brouhaha over the FEDERAL law ( UOCAVA AKA Public Law 99-410) requiring ballots being sent 45 days in advance of the election.
The FULL story with all related documents are here thanks to the DoD - normally a good source on military related issues....
Hope these facts help you to understand the real story behind the sensational news bites.
ASOC out
I bet many of those will never vote Republican again if they feel disenfranchised by Murkowski.
Only registered Republicans are allowed to vote in the primary for Republics to stop any such shenaigans.
Been that way since 1992

As I have repeatedly told my friends, “it is not paranoia if it is true.”
