How can the GOP bigwigs think Murky can possibly win the general if it is even suspected they cheated to get her on the ballot?

RINO’s are rapidly becoming an endangered species. Even in Alaska. The corruption of the Murkowski bunch is legendary in this state. When Lisa's father was in office, he took kickbacks, bribes, funneled money to his personal account and walked away with millions.

They all start out with the best intentions, but after they stay in office a while, they become corrupt. The lack of term limits must stop, like the Presidency. 2 terms is more than enough for a Senator. One would be much better though.

Yes, the modern way to cheat in elections is to simply disqualify votes for the other guy.

Or, if you can't disqualify the votes then you disqualify the candidates ~ that's the Obama way!

Looks like the absentee ballots have magically doubled.

I hope they don’t tear each other apart and open the door for the Dem.

Do this with class, Alaska.

This shows how mentally ill these have become for their lust for power.

Here in the 1st congressional in the state of Mi, Benishek beat Allen by 15 votes and Allen was said to be considering a recount. It is said that he only relented after someone convinced him otherwise. Yet, after he bowed out another decided to jump into the race as an “I”. Now aint that just great? Benishek is as conservative as one can get yet someone has to become the spoiler for the democrats to win the seat the infamous Stupak held.

BTW, Allen had to move to run in the district. But, my hat is off to him because he didnt demand a recount and has got behind the candidate-Benishek, a Surgeon.

We can reform the RNC. We are already doing it by NOT sending them money. We can starve them into compliance. Sort of like a Tea Party seige.

Alaska U.S. Senate Candidate Joe Miller vs. Dan Fagan the Drama-man

http://www.redcounty.com/content/alaska-us-senate-candidate-joe-miller-vs-dan-fagan-drama-man

The other day, I had the chance to listen to radio personality Dan Fagan literally scream at U.S. Senate candidate Joe Miller on KFQD, 750 AM and call Joe Miller a liar.

In the clip below, you will hear a portion of the exchange between U.S. Senate Candidate Joe Miller and Dan Fagan.

The issue that was being contested by Dan Fagan was what Joe said in a Human Events article written by Jedediah Bila.

There is a quote in the article that Fagan took issue with and was his reason for calling Joe Miller a liar.

“She refused to vote to repeal Obamacare; I would.” (Joe Miller)

Let me make one observation. This article was written by Palin hater Sean Cockerham at the Anchorage Daily News (Daily Worker, acc. to Alaska Freepers). It should therefore be taken with a huge grain of salt. he is trying to gin up as much controversy as possible becasue it hurst only the GOP.

Also, the article says very clearly:

“The Division of Elections said Saturday that it had 23,472 ballots to process so far. Most are expected to be cast for the Republican primary race between Miller and Murkowski, but a portion will be for the Democratic primary instead.

The tally includes 13,740 absentee votes, out of a reported 16,000 absentee ballots that had been requested. There are another 9,069 questioned ballots, some of which will be disqualified. Elections officials said there are also 663 early votes that still need to be counted.”

Not all the votes are (Absentees and questioned votes) are GOP votes. Some are Democrats. I think the NRSC and Murkowski are trying to disqualify Miller votes, but I saw the interview with Sara Palin in which she said Miller would have final victory soon and the she, her family and friends all voted absentee. She is sending us a message that all is well. Miller will win.

The GOP Establishment will once again be vanquished by Palin and her allies. And I don’t believe she would have made such a bold prediction of success for Miller if she didn’t have inside information of where the absentees are coming from and Miller’s likely showing there. Miller is likely far ahead with the absentees because his type voter votes absentee (fisherman, oil workers).

Remember this as well. Murkowski doesn’t need to break even by cutting Miller’s lead with absentees. She needs to beat him with absentees. Looking at the confident Sarah Palin as she predicted his victory, I thought to myself: That ain’t happening. Miller has an insurmountable lead both in the election day vote and in the absentees.

If the GOP takes over the Senate Lisa is in line to be chair of the very important energy committee. She is now a very senior Senator and Alaska will be much better with her in a strong position rather then having two very junior senators. Most Alaskan do not understand the importance of the energy committee chairman.

If the NRSC picks a side in this fight they will condemn themselves to irrelevancy for at least a generation if not an eternity.

That goes for the GOP as a whole too...

There may be no party left for Sarah to redeem.

Miller leads Scott McAdams 47-39. McAdams is counteracting several of the trends causing Democrats trouble across the country this year. He’s running even with independents at 42% and he’s benefiting from a more unified party, getting 81% of the Democratic vote while just 73% of Republicans are committed to Miller. In most states that equation would be enough for the lead but in Alaska, where there’s an 18 point Republican party identification advantage, it leaves McAdams running behind.
