Why do you call Lisa a crook? What has she done that makes you think that she is a crook?
The Murkowskis ascension in Alaska is all about favoritism, with a wide open frontier with not a whole lot of people but a vast wealth of resources they have been right on top of anything that went boom.
Though its rather harsh to say corrupt they most definitely were involved in deals and back room handshakes for decades. They do not have a high opinion of honesty by most Alaskans.
And I happen to be an Alaskan, the old royalty of Alaska is a dying breed and the people of this generation made up of the “newcomers” or cheechakos see the light, and they don’t want family generations being their representatives any more.
All the more reason Joe Miller is the best person and image of the average Alaska, he is one of us.
