So Long, Heather
06.04.08 -- 9:14AM
By David Kurtz



One of TPM's faves, Rep. Heather Wilson (R-NM), went down last night. She was Sen. Pete Domenici's hand-picked successor in New Mexico, but she lost in the GOP primary to Rep. Steve Pearce.

Wilson earned her TPMmuckraker bona fides with the phone calls she and Domenici made to then-U.S. Attorney David Iglesias to pressure him to bring corruption indictments against state Democrats in the run-up to the 2006 mid-term elections. Soon after his refusal to comply, Iglesias was canned by the White House.

In other down-ballot action, Sen. Frank Lautenberg pummeled Rep. Rob Andrews in the Democratic primary in New Jersey.

14. She's HORRIBLE
which is why I take every opportunity to post this video.

It was so incredibly over the top that even Newsweek dissed her over it.

She's almost as big a disgrace to this state as Stupid is to the country. Almost.

She was also a neocon star on the fast track. It's good she's been defeated now.

11. Oh Jeez
Some kid might have glimpsed a nipple for a microsecond! How appalling! How tasteless!

How dumb can you get.

7. Not so fast, my friend!
She'll be back--when Bingaman's term is up she'll run for his seat.

8. So long to the rethuglican potty as well. The writing is on the wall.



BushCo and their gopper co-conspirators have screwed up this country so bad that anything associated
with the GOP will never again have a chance of getting anywhere but the history books.

9. She'll have more time to treat her child who is still suffering
from its exposure to Janet Jackson's nipple.

I mean, really, who will think of the children.

From what I hear, the child still wakes up at night screaming Aureola!
