Translation - The dems are scared to death of Mike Rogers and Candice Miller and want to make it look like Stabmenow is doing something besides just voting for leftist measures.
Considering the reports that Schumer, Dodd,a nd Corzine all want to leave the Senate and run for governor..it's more likely that nobody else wanted the job...
Schumer, Dodd,and Corzine leaving the Senate? They're dropping like flies.
How sweet it is.
The real translation is we have to have a woman in a leadership position and Hillary wants to run for Pres. and can't be seen as a leader of the Rats if she wants to pawn herself off as a "centrist".
I actually read a news article the day after the election that called her a centrist.
She voted to ban the .30-30. How centrist is that?
Yupp...the NJ gubernatorial race is next year..NY and CT both in 2006..all three want OUT of the Senate big time..GOP could pick up the NJ and CT seats...
Yeah but it was an cop killing/assault .30-.30.
i got to meet that waste of space a few years ago...
she came to the small town where i was living and was schmoozing in the local bakery.
I caused a small riot buy asking her how it felt to work for a lying adulterer who had caused the Arkansas Prison Blood Scandal.
Thought she was gonna choke on her cruller.
Kinda like third fiddle in Nero's Rome.
You are Correct.
Just trying to protect her in 2006
Kinda like First Mate on the Titanic

Thank you . . .
. . for contacting me to express your disappointment with my recent vote regarding the assault weapons ban. I appreciate you taking the time to share your views with me.
I share your support for Second Amendment rights. However, law enforcement agents across the state have made it clear to me that keeping guns such as uzis and semi-automatic machine guns off our streets will help make our communities safer. Organizations such as the Police Officers Association of Michigan, which represents over 10,000 law enforcement officers, have asked that the assault weapons ban be renewed to keep our streets safer. I respect the opinion of those who feel strongly in favor of assault weapons, however, I believe the judgment of trained experts from our law enforcement agencies provide a compelling argument to do what we can to protect our Second Amendment rights while keeping our neighborhoods and children safe from military-style weapons.
Again thank you for taking the time to contact me. Please feel free to do so whenever I may be of assistance to you or your family.
Sincerely,
Debbie Stabenow
United States Senator
Remember the Dim's rush to the exits in '94 when they found out that it wasn't much fun being in the minority? This is simply Phase II.
Time for Debbie to raid the senior citizens' homes and arrange a bus trip to Windsor for prescription drugs and a bit of Keno at Casino Windsor.
Maybe it's like the Hamas leaders...(and Dashele) you show up and you lose your job....... The real leaders are afraid of taking the positions for fear of losing their meal tickets..
To the Dems today this is a plus.....she hasn't done anything wrong.
Did some RINO defect that I missed?
Last I heard, the Senate was 55-44-1.
Where does she get 45 Dems from?
BTW, we need to target her for being moved out and replaced by a good Republican candidate next go around. She's the weakest, and the most vunerable, IMHO.
45 is probably the "independent" Jim Jeffords.
Sounds like a sitcom. A bad one.
As much as I like the idea of Schumer out of the Senate, you do realize that since New York has no term limits for its governor, he could become governor for life. Eeesh, I feel bad for all of our New Yorker friends.
