Indictment Opens Up GOP Race for Senate, pollsters say

[Psychoblues]

Does the GOP have anyone ready to run? Will the seat even remain in GOP control? Are the citizens of Alaska going to revolt?

"Today's indictment of U.S. Sen. Ted Stevens throws the Republican primary for the Senate race wide open, Alaska pollsters say.

Ted's prospects for winning the primary, they obviously just went up in smoke," said Anchorage pollster Marc Hellenthal. "It kind of opens up the Republican primary."

Hellenthal said developer David Cuddy would be the odds-on favorite for the Republican nomination but has run a lackluster campaign so far. He said the wild card is Alaska political newcomer Vic Vickers, owner of a Florida-based maritime company, who plans to spend $750,000 of his own money on winning the primary.

"If a guy is going to spend $750,000, you can't ignore him, and it's not like Dave (Cuddy) is a household name," Hellenthal said.............."

Ted Stevens is and has been a crook for many years now, marteen. It has finally caught up with him.

[actsnoblemartin]

good, let him rot in jail

i dont like corrupt politicians

politicians are like cock roaches, they do all their work in secret, and when the light is shown on them they run and hide

Good ones don't. Jerks like Ted Stevens are all over the place though. It's time good Americans start taking them to task for their misdeeds!!!!!!!

[actsnoblemartin]

Your exactly right, americans could unite for change, getting rid of corrupt politicians.

:)

I like it

I believe a man who can comprimise is a braver man then a man who wont budge an inch

but thats just my opinion

I mean i have my beliefs, but comprimise solves problems.

not hardliners

not my concern. Id like to see the GOP win, but only if they've got a good conservative. Otherwise whats the point?

be nice to see the GOP retain the seat. but everything has consequences.

Let's hope that the truth prevails, a'21.

Hopefully, we'll see Waxman indicted here soon..

So it will even things up a bit.

[Psychoblues]

Just what has Waxman got to do with any of this, stevie? Are you accusing him of something? Will you share your enormous investigative knowledge with us or were you just kidding as per usual?

My misspoke...I meant Wexler..:slap:

[stephanie]

I was just thinking....how friggen sad is it, that we are sitting here wondering how many congresscritters from both the Republican and Democrats are going to be indicted this month.......

[Psychoblues]

Stevens is all I know about, stevie. Is Wexler in trouble? Really, I don't know?!?!??!??!??! I would be surprised if he is. I've met the man and he seems really really straight up to me!!!!!!!!!

[actsnoblemartin]

yeah, i think its a gentlemens agreement to keep out other parties, and other ideas.

and to keep us divided, into two extremes, the left side and ride side of the room yelling at each other, when their things we agree on, that we should be focusing on what we agree on. instead of the symbolic victory of talking over people :coffee:

Stevens should switch parties. Then the Democrats will defend him, the minority GOP can't touch him, and he can keep his seat.

[Psychoblues]

What a silly thing to say, gm. I had you figured for a smarter person than that!!!!!!!

[Psychoblues]

Bullshit? Do you think it is bullshit, gm? Why don't you discuss it with intelligence here on the board instead of abusing your sillyass neg rep privileges? Seriously, cowgirl?!?!?!?!?! You have problems that even I can't address!!!!!!!!!!!

Back to it, Randy, On The Other Hand: :salute::cheers2::clap::laugh2::cheers2::salute:

I believe that William Jefferson Clinton is a democrat from Arkansas now living in New York. I guess PB figured you for a bit more intelligence than you actually have.;)

:lol: Looks like MFM is stalking again. What a homo. No wonder I’ve had him on ignore for the last few months.

I stand corrected. William Jefferson, Democrat, Louisiana. William Jefferson Clinton, Democrat, ex-president. Both crooks, both defended by their party faithful in spite of their obvious corruption. Easy to get confused.

[Psychoblues]

Self correction excepted, you're still a genuine piece of shit in my book, gm.
