I think she is venerable too. The only reason she isn't polling worse is because she has kept her mouth shut and because of Baltimore. We should not drop the ball on MD. This year is a one in a century. This isn't 1994. That was small potatoes to what is about to happen if we keep our eye on the ball and stick to our guns.

Here is the good Doc’s site. Any Freepers in MD know anything about this guy?

The Trifecta would be Boxer, Murray and Mikulski

I don’t think she is venerable. I *do* think the Dynamo from Dundalk is VULNERABLE.

We need to support whomever her opposition is.

[montag813]

Many people are telling me she will not run again for re-election, due to her ankle injury, which has neccessitated her to be restricted to a Jazzy for the past 6 months, and will continue to do so for perhaps another year. She is grossly obese as it is, and this injury is affecting her health. Do not be surprised to hear her annouce her retirement sometime in the next 2 months.

I don’t live in Maryland anymore (had the misfortune of living there many years ago — my apologies to any conservative Marylanders out there) so take this for what it is worth. Mikulski could run against Jesus Christ in Maryland and Mikulski would win in a landslide.

She is entrenched in that state the way Bwaney Fwank is in his district or Byrd is in West Virginia.

Hopefully, the old bag will choose to not run because that is the only way she is leaving the Senate.

[Clintonfatigued]

I don’t see Mikulski as being vulnerable. However, a year like this is the kind in which upsets happen. Never say never. Conservatives should at least keep an eye on this race.

Well, I'm not sure if Mikuski is vulnerable, but she definitely meets the fifth definition of venerable: ven·er·a·ble [ven-er-uh-buhl] –adjective 1. commanding respect because of great age or impressive dignity; worthy of veneration or reverence, as because of high office or noble character: a venerable member of Congress. 2. a title for someone proclaimed by the Roman Catholic Church to have attained the first degree of sanctity or of an Anglican archdeacon. 3. (of places, buildings, etc.) hallowed by religious, historic, or other lofty associations: the venerable halls of the abbey. 4. impressive or interesting because of age, antique appearance, etc.: a venerable oak tree. 5. extremely old or obsolete; ancient: a venerable automobile. –noun 6. a venerable person. [Origin: 1400–50; late ME < L venerābilis, equiv. to venerā(rī) to venerate + -bilis -ble] —Related forms ven·er·a·bil·i·ty, ven·er·a·ble·ness, noun ven·er·a·bly, adverb

[A_Former_Democrat]

She should be vulnerable just on looks alone

[Hoodat]

I would absolutely love to see Mikulski lose in November. I don’t hold out any hope with Marylanders though. Many in the DC suburbs have relocated to NoVa to escape high Maryland taxes, but are now demanding in Virginia the same big government that gave them high taxes to begin with.

[ustanker]

Bulldog Mikulski Could get Caught Robbing Banks and still get Elected! She Has a job for life like the Pope.

[bmwcyle]

If MD finally wakes up from its long liberal sleep wound be a great thing.

[jz638]

Any candidate has an uphill climb against Mikulski, but I don’t know how Dr. Wargotz is going to get there from here. He certainly has the type of background that would be appealing in this political environment, but his comments at CPAC about not believing Obama was born in America will make him easily smeared as a crank.

Maryland “Freak State” PING!

[MDformerDem]

MD is likely not another MA. Too many minorities here who will rush to save Babs when the talking heads say that MD is a referendum on The Won.

Best opportunity for GOP pickup is if/when the seat actually becomes open. There is a long list of Dems waiting for that seat. Gansler or Van Hollen or one of those will say, so sorry Cummings/Curry, but it’s My Turn, just sit yourselves down and wait for future opportunities. That’s the recipe for Dems staying home.
