And William Jefferson (D-LA) will be re-elected in spite of his flagrant use of bribe money...the usual double standard.

Federal Prison is not like a bunch of trucks but rather a series of tubes.

I remember him threatening to resign his Senate seat over the “bridge to nowhere” pork project. Maybe he should have at the time.

Why?? Palin has been doing a great job of cleaning up the corruption of some in alaska’s GOP including running against incumbents, including supporting her Lt. Gov to run against less than pure as Alaskan snow Don Young

Who is the best primary opponent against him? Anyone that donates to GOP organizations needs to send some to the best candidate there. Money goes a long way in Alaska. One of the few donations I made was to Sean Parnell. Parnell is running against Don Young, a Stevens clone.

Palin isn’t part of the Stevens/Murkowski gang.
