I am confused, in Alaska we actually have a real chance at picking up a Senate seat.

[Winterblues]

Joe Miller and Lisa Murkowski both have over a million dollars in their campaign war chests plus both have outside interests dumping huge amounts of money into the campaign.. The DNC just gave McAdams a check for $42,000. Forty two thousand dollars...boy we will show them something now....:wtf:

[joeybee12]

1. Come on, they had to spend $2 million for Ben Nelson ads...it makes sense because

the guy isn't up for re-election until 2012.

Oh wait, that DOESN'T make sense!

Never mind.

[Bumblebee]

2. you ARE confused. We do not have a chance in Alaska.

3. Not if we put up 42k to their millions. nt

[Winterblues]

4. Unless Lisa gets more than twice as many votes as Miller, we have a chance..

There is about a forty sixty spit between Democrats and Republicans. what will it take for Lisa to get more than that forty percent? I don't see it happening myself.. We already have one democratic Senator so it really would not be such a shock to gain another..

5. Have you looked at the polls?

He should be happy to get anything.

7. Polls are not predictors, they are reflections.

And what they are reflecting is two candidates with million dollar megaphones and one candidate with a a couple of tin cans and a piece of string.

The Rahm/DNC/DLC model of only backing candidates who are a sure thing is a LOSING model.

6. Joe Miller said he is against the minimum wage..so

If you want to help Scott McAdams fight this with some TV ads ..maybe he can win..

You know about 2 and half years ago, I didn't think there was a snowball's chance in hell for this racist country to elect an Afro-Americna to the Presidency.
Yea, I am from Illinois, yea, I knew Obama was ok, and eloquent..so what the fuck..
So Scott has a chance, this idiot statement about the minimum wage won't work. It could do it..give him a chance..
I didn't think that the other Alaskan Democrat had a chance either..So I was wrong again..
Think about it. forget the polls.

8. I could be wrong, but I think 42k is the maximum amount that they can directly contribute.

They can buy tv ads and spend money on other things, though.

When Tea Bag Queen O'Donnell won, the RNC sent her a check for 42k.

9. I hope that is a legitimate explanation because otherwise I am at a complete loss.

10. You are correct (nt)
