| Not only that, but the other GOP Senator...Milkulski (sp?) and the at-large Rep, all federal GOPers are under investigation for a massive scam Unfortunately, Alaska is so deserted there are only 2 real democrats I can see having a chance in a presidential year...the mayor of anchorage, and constant loser (except his one stint at governor) Knowles | ||||

| Its funny how the neo-cons selectively ignores news like this - because it proves yet again that anytime a political party gains majority power corruption is the result - this implies that the neo-cons hold on the war on terror can also be corrupt thus wrong, but they can't see that, as obvious as it is. | ||||

The GOP has so many corrupt members or members who were defeated in 06 (or will be in 08) over their corruption...what does the GOP have...Jefferson, who the democratic party got a strong primary challenger and helped her to try and win...while the GOP all got behind these corrupt members and tried to get them re-elected, except Foley which they tried to keep from retiring, despite what the GOP leader at the time might have heard | ||||
