13. DP is the more progressive of the 2 papers, but owned by

the same ass who owns LA Times and others... In '04 he overrode the editorial board of DP and made them endorse Bush* though they'd been running pro-Kerry (Bush-critical) editorials for months.

DP strongly endorsed Obama and most other rational choices, but Musgrave? God knows what they were thinking....

2. She hasn't thanked her campaign staff either. Bitter, party of one...
In the end, it doesn't matter. Musgrave will carry this year's loss and her resulting obscurity to the grave.

5. Musgrave believed in power more than representation.
She has taken her loss personally, because her terrible ego has been badly bruised. She won't be an adult and concede to Betsy Markey, nor will she ever appear publicly and thank her supporters - the reality of the situation is too much for her accept. She lost. She lost badly. But she lives in a fantasy world where the latest political "sales trend" wins the day.

She is a loser, through and through.

6. Because she is batshit crazy. Barking mad. Over-the-moon looney.
Her elevator don't go alla way up.

She's a whole basket of fries short of a Happy Meal.

Are you getting my drift, here?

helpfully,
Bright

9. she's horrible. she is a bellweather for our country
the fact that as a religious fucktard she could even get elected in the first place was the real shock. The fact that she's going all Tom delay on us isn't a big surprise.

"It’s been a long campaign, and I deeply appreciate all your support. I am honored and humbled by the opportunity to serve you, the people of the Fourth Congressional District in Congress."
