Lisa will be very hard to dump from here on out... and she will spend the next 6 years dumping ON us. Bad as Miller is he would at least be removable in 6... my feelings exactly, folks are all about throw alla the crooks out, till it comes to their own crook we're screwed anyway, John Wayne morphed into Superman couldn't fix the systemic mess created in our financial system. maybe if folks see hard times they'll tar and feather politicians again
I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

Lisa doesn't mind taxing American citizens to pay for the education of Illegal aliens. Nor do many of the arrogant idiots we elect, and seem to keep electing.
I fear it�s only going to get worse!

Actually, I think it's rather telling that a relative no-good came so close to dumping Ms. Princess. I tend to be a bit more optimistic about our chances for getting rid of her. The only stumbling block may be finding a decent person to run against her. And I don't think the Native Corps. will automatically be in her corner. They sure weren't large on her daddy.

Uh-huh. I was actually quite surprised that she got their backing like she did. Perhaps they really didn't like the other guy.

Hopefully, a decent representative will surface to replace Begich and then 6 years later for Lisa.
Joel/AK, I have no idea who on this forum voted for whom. I just know most Alaskans who voted conservative apparently voted for Lisa and like it or not are getting exactly what they deserve.
They may not have asked for it but their vote sure did. Her voting record is there to see if folks would have just took the time to look at it. It's unfortunate Miller behaved like he did or things may have turned out differently.
Fortunately, this legislation is dead...for now.

Could be. It's pretty well documented that the NCs lost money when Frank-the-bank was investing it for them.
Some people would call it theft.

There may well have been conservatives that voted FOR Liiisa, but I cannot fathom that. Anyone that voted FOR Liiisa did not cast a conservative vote. There-in lies the difference.

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.

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.

The real losers in all of this is us Alaskans. Now we've got a ticked off RINO that is voting along with the Dems and there's not much we can do to stop her.
That's ok, I'll ass shoot a dink.

She isn't in the same league as some of the "big dogs" though either, and neither was her father - which he had taught to him the hard way! So I am not discouraged about our chances to be rid of her in the next go-round. But, we need two good, savvy people who are dedicated to the cause.

As fun as this thread is I believe Alaskans need concentrate on getting Baggage on the road packing. Time to be proactive now, not retrospective. Sleeza can wait a bit... I'd like to consider Sullivan as a possible. What can you Anchorage fellows tell me about him? What (if any) problems or skeletons might he have in his background? Credit card debts? Low cost hunting/fishing license? best, bhtr

It's amazing how the media drives these elections.

I used to have the impression that the folks who lived in Alaska were fairly smart people, but my opinion has now changed and i now believe this state is full of some of the biggest Dumb-Ass people this country has for citizens along with Nevada.

She's bought and paid for.. We had our chance to get rid of her. That stings a little. Yup!! Inneresting tho. THe native corps. donated something like 1.4 million to her campaign because they knew the Dim was a loser and they wouldn't continue getting their goodies from Uncle Sugar if Miller was elected. Therefore, the princess was the logical choice. Hum!! They had 1.4 million clams to donate but their villages still look like the slums of New York. BTW, there's a front page article in the News Miner today about the princesse's vote on "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" where she makes a statement to the affect that she's NOT a RINO and won't necessarily vote the "Osama line". SURE, YEAH, RIGHT!!! Haven't read the article all the way thru yet tho. Yeah, I'm sure we're stuck with her for eternity now. Boys, we've been had. Bear in Fairbanks

You are absolutely right. It wasn't always so though. It's a recent development since we've been overrun with "some of the biggest Dumb-Ass people" from outside.
