Remember how God opened a door for Sarah Palin, and she just had to walk through? Well, apparently God is back on the stump here in Alaska, but now instead of just opening doors (like the one he eventually slammed on ol’ whatsername’s head in November of 2008), look what he’s up to.
A recent campaign email stated:
We don’t want to loose the momentumn of this great campaign!! We are going to get Joe Miller elected, it’s just that for reasons we don’t understand God wants us to have a waiting spell. We need to be wise as serpents and gentle as doves, and keep the campaign uplifted in constant prayer.
In order for Joe to keep campaigning he needs funds. So far the Lord has always provided the money in this grass roots campaign, and this time God is going to use you to provide!
A fundraiser will be held at Campaign Headquarters on Monday from 5:00-8:30 pm. We need as many people to show up and make this a great event for the campaign.Looks like God got a little testy after spending all his personal mad money on the primary race, and wasn’t too pleased about being hit up for the general. So, now he’s using you, yes you my friend, as his personal ATM machine in the run to November. Because frankly up until now, you haven’t been pulling your weight and God says “Fork it over.”
The “waiting spell ” that the letter mentions, refers to the fact that the Tea Party Express (aka Miller’s Sugardaddy) has decided that Miller’s campaign will be “smooth sailing” from this point out, and no longer needs their help. With McAdams, who until recently was a virtual unknown, a mere six points behind in a poll with a margin of error of 4.5%, the Tea Party Express is awfully cocky. Or they just want to be long gone and not blamed for a potential loss in November. In any case, they’ve moved on to greener pastures to go help the whackjob du jour in Delaware. The only ones sad to see them go are the Miller crowd, and the Anchorage media market who benefitted from an influx of cash the likes of which are seldom seen in a primary race.
But, fear not. The man who claims to have taken no outside money (um…except the Tea Party thing, but let’s not talk about that) has reportedly wooed and won over K Street fundraiser Mike Gula to start raking in the very outside money he recently reviled. But that was yesterday and this is today.
Remember last week when you were supposed to give Joe Miller money because you just knew that Lisa Murkowski was going to sue him over the ballot count? Instead, she took the high road and bowed out gracefully, while simultaneously allowing the McAdams campaign two solid extra weeks of organization and fundraising. Doh! So, they had to come up with some other reason and “God wants you to” seemed as good as any.
And while God is busy “using you to provide” for Joe Miller whose moral compass tells him to cut social security for seniors, and Medicare for the sick, and the Department of Education for kids who aren’t being home schooled, Scott McAdams is having fundraisers of his own. He is now the number one fundraiser at Act Blue, and was the rock star at a fundraiser in his honor at the home of Hollis French last night.

No serpents, no doves, no divine ATM machines, or fear-mongering about impending lawsuits - just a bunch of really excited Alaskans coming together to promote a candidate who has Alaska’s best interest at heart.
