#2 Tomorrow she loses her status as ranking member on a committee. The Pubs will pull all her privileges.

On election day she'll have less than 5% of the vote as people will decide she's more trouble than she's worth in writing her name in on the ballot.

She'll then be the butt of all political jokes in both DC and Alaska.

That in turn will kill any career she might have as a lobbyist. She'll have to come home to Juneau and settle for a put-up job in a local think-tank.

The thing is, if she'd just done the right thing -- concede, endorse Miller and stay out of the way -- she could have run for the other Senate seat in 2014. Or she could have hoped for a Romney or Huckleberry win in 2012 and angled to be the next Secretary of Energy or the Interior. Perhaps a cushy ambassadorship somewhere.

No, she's blown all that. She'll deserve every bit of the humiliation she gets and she'll serve as an object lesson to every pol, Pub and Dem: this is what happens when you don't get the message the voters are sending.

#3 Misspells don't count in AK. Got to be on the money. Lot's of her voters will know how to spell Makowski, I mean Merkowski or is that Murkowsky? Or just SOL.
