Someone better audit the books before he leaves.

Sure the ruling class cut their donations so they’d starve him out and put in someone more Establishment.

He’s been a huge winner.

Won NJ governorship. Won a senate seat in Mass.

Who thought that was possible just months after Kennedy died?

Won the House against overwhelming numbers just 2 years prior.

Doesn’t matter how or why. He got Republicans elected.

Big shoes to fill.

She has other plans, but if Sarah decided to run for the spot she would be great at it.

Hale-flickin’-liuah! ‘Bout time this affirmative action success get out of there. I’d really love to see Palin in there, but I don’t think it’ll happen.
