I also remember the last time we had a "Nick Begich" in Congress.

My only regret is that she isn't taking on Murkowski instead, because I think Sarah is probably the only one who could beat the Republican-hating idiot.
Her ethics are my biggest problem with her. And that does not include quitting. She was being sued by everyone, like Trump was being hammered. Her legal bills were mounting and she felt it best for the State. I agree with her on quitting.

The Trooper-gate issue was huge and she had plenty of other problems with dealing with her own life and family and using her powers in the wrong way.

Mark Begich, Joaquin Jackson, and Heller resistance... Three huge reasons to worry about the NRA.
