3. I hope Steven's is rolling on Palin. You know that those same shady

contractors built her house on the water. Todd had his ass up on a slope--and he ain't got but two screws left in his head. Palin is a stupid politician and she needs to go down BIG TIME!

6. Different contractors, but same MO, I believe. n/t

[Tigress DEM]

4. Recommending due to your "downloading" pic. rofl.

[Omnibus]

5. Who are those 44 percent?

How hidebound do you have to be to vote for a convicted felon?

I guess all the federal funds he's pilfered for Alaska over the years have bought him some loyalty.

8. Creatures Of Habit

This guy's been in the Senate for all but 10 years of this state's existance...many can't remember a life without "Uncle Ted". It's also a small state where many have had their lives touched by something Stevens did...this dude rolled out a lot of service and favors to his people...a reason why he was so powerful for so long. In a state that sucks so much from the Federal government, Stevens also delivered and I'm sure many there are afraid if he's gone, they lose their gravy train.

7. spineless

Republicans there have no spine. You'd think they either wouldn't vote, or would elect someone to take his place, or vote Democrat.

The numbers should be spread further than 8 points.
