1. He wants them to wait until 2014 before taking action
Meanwhile, he just won't get caught.

3. well from what the count is looking like in Alaska - the voters may do it
I read where there are like 22k ballots left to count mainly in the Anchorage area. I'm hoping Alaska's big city is like the cities in the lower 48 that are mainly democrat leaning

4. When will they change the name of the Ted Stevens Airport in Anchorage?
They should do that now and slam dunk his corrupt ass.

7. Fuck him.
Why does he deserve any special treatment? He should go hide his face forever. People don't have any sense of shame anymore.

10. What about PRISON....
This guy is worried about saving his Senate seat, what's to keep the judge from ending this stupid 'debate' (I say stupid
because it is obvious he should not be in the sentate) and sending his wrinkled old arse to prison? Would that
not be what most regular people in this position would be worried about?

15. Senate Republican vote on Stevens postponed
"This is not a corruption case," he said, adding it was a case involving "a failure to disclose" gifts.

He was convicted last month of seven counts of lying on Senate disclosure forms by failing to report more than $250,000 in home improvements and other gifts from an oil executive. He faces up to 35 years in prison.
