2. Tell me about it. So much for the tough on crime pug BS
As long as they are getting a cut of the loot, its OK to vote for a felon.

Arctic Dave, have you been keeping up with the irregularities
that appear to have surfaced? Check Mudflats here http://mudflats.wordpress.com/2008/11/06/crunching-the-numbers-in-alaska/ and you may have seen Shannyn Moore on KTUU tonight talking about it. It seems there may have been some major shenanigans going on here.

18. One of Marks campaign people is staying at our house
She has been keeping us informed. She said it should be a very interesting ten days. I hope every one stays focused on these "irregularities"

19. I think they may have gotten a little "over-bold" this time.
Too many people are noticing.

20. I never thought for a moment that they would just
go away. I guess they have people coming up that are going to over see the results to make sure everything is on the up and up.

4. I voted for Rep. Tim Mahoney, a lying sack-of-shit philanderer.
Seemed better than the Repuke choice.

:P

(He lost, btw.)

11. Sheer political cynicism
A Stevens win would allow the governor to appoint a repuke replacement.

12. The guy (forgot his name) on Rachael tonight says the Dem lawyers need to check out AK (and GA) for
Edited on Thu Nov-06-08 10:11 PM by bkkyosemite
fraud as the counts for the Repubs there are so way off the polls and the Dems in AK capitol don't seem to be many. There is hanky panky going on and I thought that may be why Palin's says she is not going back to AK cuz maybe she knows that she can take Steven's seat if he mysteriously wins. The lawyers need to get their butts there if they are not already there.

13. I've been wondering how a convicted felon can run for public office when
convicted felons are barred from voting in most states, including Alaska.

14. It appears we have major election irregularities here
The pollster on Rachel's show said that lawyers for the Democratic Party should be descending on Alaska en masse once all the votes are counted if the results continue to look as bizarre as they do right now.
