Amazing, but apparantly true. I had no idea. I am always in awe at the power of our Lord’s forgiveness when one seeks that divine gift and begs God to heal his heart and judge his soul.

Me,too. Glad he got ahold of me!

Why doesn't this surprise me?

The AP is tad late I called him the winner 2 frigging weeks ago when he won. His race was never close enough to call into question.

I’d much rather Ted Stevens had won and been expelled and Young lost and the rat defeated by a Palin Republican in 2010.

Instead it’s 6 years of a rat senator and Young (old) is still there. Stupid voters.

Doesn’t look good for Uncle Ted.

I think this is what’s known as a lose-lose situation. Win you get a dirty bloated-government hack intent on destroying the Republican Party, lose you get a leftist Democrat.

That's for sure. So next election cycle, after Young's had more time, done more damage, the Alaskans will vote big for the leftie dem, leaving them all the more bereft.

After the previous Governor appointed his daughter, the law now requires a special election.

More of the legacy of Sarah. I hoped and prayed that the cry for mercy for America was louder than the cry for change. We were outvoted in the cry department.

Imagine how ripe the field to plow for a corruption buster like Sarah. No wonder they are so afraid of her.
