This is a wealthy American.

Now that Miller has won the wayward Republican primary, Senator Murkowski who mistakenly sided with 'Big Oil' is looking like a deer caught in the headlights as she reflects on her loss. 

She is worried.  She is worried because she has allowed an extremists right winger win at the instigation of Sarah Palin.  All of a sudden her Big Oil alliance seems far less important than saving Alaska from an extremist with 'simpleton' ideas.  I feel bad for her, but, she along with every other Republicans in office during the first two years of the Obama Administration did NOTHING except obstruct vital legislation to protect the poeple of the USA.

Now she is attempting a 'write in' to run for her current seat.  Evidently, submitting her values to the Libertarian Party was a little to much for her and of course, a Green Party candidate is out of the question. 

Gee, you think there is a country and its assets and people at stake with these extremist candidates.

Ah, yeah!

The Republican Party is in disarray and the country is 'at risk.'  Why didn't Michael Steele and his alliance with Murdoch see it coming and why didn't he care? 

Republicans are about power.  They do not care about citizens.  If they did, we would not have experiened some of the most corrupt government in the country's history for 8 years under Bush and Cheney.  Who is sorry now? 

Palin is about money.  Not good government.  But, it sells well.

U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski's defeat in the Republican primary to tea party favorite Joe Miller could lead to major changes in the bill, including removal of the most contentious aspect that has given rise to criticism that Sealaska Corp. is conducting a land grab in the Tongass National Forest in southeast Alaska....
