2. Indeed.
She seems like a rather practical Senator during hearings, but when it is time to vote, McConnell calls the shots. Goodbye!


Let's hope for another Begich upset in AK!

3. Good.
She was a slave to the fossil fuel industry. She needs to be gone.

4. This is bad news
Edited on Wed Aug-25-10 04:21 AM by Ramulux
First off he was a Palin pick so this will only serve to embolden those in the media who think shes great. Secondly, this guy is most likely going to win the general meaning we will have another teabagger in the senate. I dont even want to think about what the media is going to do with this story.

7. Right now the Republicons march lock step, can you imagine what
is going to happen when they get their own version of the "Blue Dogs"? The anti-populism party is also anti-corporate. A Tea-Party caucus is going to continually challenge the establishment Republicons. It is not going to be pretty.
