Murkowski Must Step Aside
Pundit Press ^ | 9/17/10 | Aurelius

Posted on 09/17/2010 8:49:09 PM PDT by therightliveswithus

I'm tired of these Republicans who say they are for the people and for their party, yet when they lose a primary, come hell or high water everything is about them. Charlie Crist did this crap in Florida. Now Lisa Murkowski has officially said that she is in the Alaska Senate race.

Now, if you haven't been paying attention to Alaska, let me fill you in. In August they held their Republican primary. The top two candidates were Joe Miller and Lisa Murkowski. Murkowski lost, Miller won, fair and square. But Murkowski couldn't let it rest...

Murkowski must step aside. Not only is she making a mockery of herself and is making her party look bad, she is hurting Joe Miller's chances to win in Alaska. Murkowski has no chance of winning. Even Sarah Palin has stated that her campaign is "futile."

Rove made a deal or tried to he bet his house that castle would win and then got kicked in the tea-party teeth. He is pissed. He made a Castle deal, and us ignorant voters just cost him MONEY!!!!!


Seriously? You mean he had a $ stake in the Castle race?

And how much RNC money does she have to return?

Not one penny. I know an attorney who specializes in election law and I asked when Charlie Crist did it. They get to keep it all.

I wonder if they’ll post now and make the same claims that Murkowski is really doing a good thing for Miller by getting the base energized to support Miller.

Using that approach would mean Rove would have to come out and TRASH Mulkowski. as he did Christine.

Christine had not even given her acceptance speech before ROVE trashed her.

Anybody heard a peep from ROVE tonight. The answer is no.

Do I see a trend here? This I think first started in Washington State when Congressional candidate Clint Didier said he will not endorse the primary winner Dino Rossi unless Rossi meets three demands.

The gull of these people

Actually, rove was on BO'R tonight, regurgitating the same slime he's spread all week. Running through all the calumnies Castle cranked out. I had to change channels to calm down.

That clown was in the neighborhood a couple weeks ago. If I had known then what I know know I'd have gone to the dinner just to [deleted].

Did BOR ask him about the Mulkowski write-in.
Did Rove say anything about it?

Wonder how DC will look Jan 2013 as Obama leaves town. Boy, he’s gonna be pissed.

If we as a nation can survive the ruinous spending he and his buds in Congress have been doing, fiscally conservative Republicans could control government just as long this century as the socialist Democrats did last century.

I'm trying hard to feel optimistic ...
