They’ll have to drag the old fool out of the capital in a stretcher. He ain’t go’n voluntarily.

Sorry folks but Hatch's voting record is hardly different than Lugar's and he's also a drooler.

Best thing Utah can do is dump this (now senior Republican) out of the Senate and send him back to his dinosaurcactus farm.

Too many droolers in there now and he's not going to get better!

More like Liljenquist failure. Too bad we missed an opportunity to have a real conservative replace Hatch.

[RitaOK]

Disturbing news. The media sided with Hatch for reason of his friendly history with the other side of the aisle for decades, and with Ted Kennedy. Dan didn’t have machine money. The Tea Party didn’t quite get the job done for Dan in Utah, who was left hanging on the hook by Sarah PAC ads on top of an already up hill fight from the beginning.

He's 78 y/o, assumed office in 1977; amassed power, prestige and wealth, all courtesy of the American Taxpayer. Not a bad 35-year gig, but it should be curtain time for the old geezer.

Another poster boy for: Term Limits!

Ok, so let me get this straight...

A well-known guy that has been the incumbent Republican Senator in Utah since the beginning of time has a massive lead in the polls against some random guy with two years in the State Senate that nobody has ever heard of.

And the big poll lead is because Palin endorsed the guy that has been the incumbent since the beginning of time?

Riiiiiiiiiight.

One of the more egregious cases of reverse Palin derangement syndrome.

Hatch needs to go-yea, thanks Palin.

[Friendofgeorge]

Governor Palin is the reason Hatch is winning. I said that a couple weeks ago, and several Freepers here (in denial) argued with a straight face that Sarah had absolutely nothing to do with Hatch success.

So many in denial, even right here!
