Is there anyone that can beat this witch?
Palin?
She got primaried out once already, the RINOs stormed to her defence, colluded with the libs and did a “successful” (read fraudulent) write in campaign.
And that’s how MooKowski stayed in her seat post primary loss.
She was caught unawares and beaten by a weak nobody Joe Miller last time, so theoretically, yes. She’ll be prepared this time though.
A nobody named Karen Perry is apparently running, she can’t do it. Miller is unlikely to be able to do it again should he chose to go again. Palin is a pipedream.
Conservative former Governor Sean Parnell (hey Alaskans how is that liberal swine who beat him treating you?) could do it , or a former LT Governor. I doubt any of those are likely to run though.
State Senator Mike Dunleavy was reported some months ago as considering it. Sounds like a decent choice.
The democrats don’t seem likely to put up a real candidate so this would a very rare instance were I would see myself advocating a third party bid in November if Murkowski is renominated. A 3-way race against Murkowski and a token dem is winnable, Miller almost did it in 2010 with Murkowski as a write in (tougher with her name actually on the ballot). With their recent history you’d have to figure the dems would try to pull some shi* though, either pull their nominee and replace them with Begich if they thought they had a chance to win or illegally vacate the ballot altogether (as they did in 2014 to defeat Parnell) so dems are free to vote for Murkowski.
For RINO hunters finding a VIABLE primary challenger for Murk should be a priority, I can’t be optimistic though.
John Hilstrand. He likes firing his AR from the bridge of the Time Bandit. Is he an Alaskan or just works there many months of the year?
