The real irony is the amount of air time wasted in arguing about which rotten apple was better than the others. And who was elected for the next six years has no real bearing on how this present term's senator votes currently. Nor is anything especially surprising.
The election detiorated to personalities. Miller allowed that to happen with the way he handled a lot of things. He should have never allowed that. Soon as he did it was no longer about issues. Races have to be run about issues, and sometimes it has to be forced. I've said it before, she didn't win, he lost it. She ran on how to elect her and never discussed issues. That saved her bacon. Hopefull this kind of election will never happen again. But we have to get somebody to run against her that appeals to a larger group. Few politicians are known that well. Hopefully Dan Sullivan will start getting around the state.
