Alaska RINO Murkowski Launches Spoiler Campaign
Lisa Murkowski, appointed by her daddy to the Senate in 2004, lost the August Republican primary to Joe Miller. Rather than accept the voters' choice, she is expected to announce a write-in campaign this evening. She has no hope whatsoever of remaining in the Senate, but is expected to use her Republican funded war chest to attack Miller and bleed votes from the Republican nominee. Whether or not there is a Democratic Happy Ending to this story for Murkowski remains to be seen.
Republicans like this (and sadly there appear to many of them) make it seem pretty obvious in hindsight why the Republican party has been doing poorly in recent elections.
Some states have laws preventing the losers of primary races from entering as a write-in. Good idea. |
