The good thing about this race is that if she wins and is shown deference for political power, we will then know just how corrupt the Republican Establishment is and who is responsible. That is a good thing.
How will she legislate? Like the backstabbing RINO she is.
She needs to be starved for funds.
Frankly, so should Alaska. Screw ‘em.
This will not forgotten.. bad move by them..
If they are naive I don't care.. I am probably not alone..
Miller was on Hannity and he says they still have military ballots to be counted.
She’ll be the same RINO as always. You can never count on her to not vote with the Rats.
AP = Always Propaganda!
Total Premature BS! What AP stated is assuming all of the write-in ballots are for Murki. They are not. There were more than 100 write-in candidates. Some of them had substantial organizations behind them. We shall see. Then there is the issue of Absentee (mostly Military) ballots.
*IF* she wins, let her caucus with the DIMWIT Party. When the Republicans take the Senate in 2012 she’ll have four years to lament what a complete and utter boob she’d been.
For that very reason alone, I’m willing to bet she’ll play coy but then agree to caucus with the Republicans. She won’t want to join the losing side.
Personally, she can take a hike for all I care.
Investigate, investigate and investigate this one.
Assume, M'ski got 95% of the write in votes (it is likely less) and then assume 95% of those pass inspection (only 5% fail) and she ends up with 75,089 votes and a lead of 5,337 votes.
Those are optimistic numbers for M'ski, but if they hold up JoeM would have to get 5,338 more votes than M'ski in the 37,000 absentee ballots - certainly doable.
If Murkowski ends up winning, she will have no real power in the Senate. She will lose her rank on committees and be essentially a freshman Senator.
Are the military even allowed to vote absentee? I thought that was outlawed in most states for this election.
AK is as stupid AZ. Screw the RINOs.
It is likely that AK military absentee ballots will be counted. They have one of the highest percentage of deployed military and those in Palin’s wake I am sure have cooperated to see that they get their ballots.
I do not know whether the SOS in AK is Republican, but suspect it is.
I smell a fish with the GOPUSA group. Did a little research and it has a murky background. Fitting for Murki.
Some interesting info on GOPUSA here:

I have no way of verifying what is stated, but it appears to be a shaddowy beast.
If it is truly “Conservative” they would not be supporting Murki in AK.
Name some of the write-in candidate who had "substantial organizations" behind them.
There was a thread on FR that said Miller won already. Geesh!!
She will vote liberal and statist.
I’m sorry, I take that back. I got an email from a Republican site that said he won.
