Mark Begich: Sarah Palin may not be Alaska resident
Politico ^ | 07/10/2013 | BURGESS EVERETT

Sarah Palin “quit on Alaska” as governor and “ has lost touch” with her home state, Mark Begich told POLITICO.

The Democratic senator said Palin, who said Tuesday she’s considering challenging him for his seat in 2014, might not even be a resident of Alaska and is someone he won’t take seriously unless she emerges from a competitive Republican primary.

“I don’t know if she’s a resident. She’s been away from Alaska a lot and has probably lost touch with what’s going on. She should go to my webpage,” Begich said. “Most Alaskans I see on a pretty regular basis, but I haven’t seen her for a long time.”

During an interview Wednesday with POLITICO, Begich questioned four times whether Palin is even a resident of the state she once governed and said his campaign won’t go on the offensive against Palin unless she can handle Joe Miller and Lt. Gov. Mead Treadwell in a primary.

“A Republican primary in Alaska? She may not survive,” he said, one of a bundle of choice remarks for the former vice presidential candidate.

Begich, a former mayor of Anchorage, has known Palin for years. He said his sister played basketball with Palin — but there’s no love lost between the two.

“I take every candidate seriously — that is if she’s still a resident, but you know she quit on Alaska what she was governor,” Begich said. “She’s been somewhat vacant from the state and quit on the state, so I wish her the best on her potential run.”

Actually it’s the other way around! His brother wrote about HAARP.

However I have been hearing for the last couple of years, his Ad’s that end with these are not paid for with GOV dollars?
WTF then who the hell is bankrolling the little twerp.

In Anchorage we are still paying and will for quite a few years, his sell out to unions for endorsements. Also as a junior senator he did not achieve any postings to committees that deal with AK, Specifically military related, mining related, oil related or fishing related! Yea fishing it’s a multi Billion dollar industry here.
I still hope tapes will show up that prove he was informed of justice dept investigations of Ted Stevens either before or after they started and we can lock the punk up!!!

And the father Nick Sr was the Congressman from Alaska, who disappeared on an airplane with Hale Boggs in 1972.
