Lisa Murkowski Gives her 2010 Opponent Some Delightful Ammo


I don't believe Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin will oppose Murkowski in the 2010 GOP primary. I'm one of many who see a relentlessly downward trajectory in Palin's political future. I predict a recall petition in 2009 easily gaining the necessary signatures to make it onto the ballot.

I also see Stevens losing his appeal, if President Bush doesn't preemptively pardon Stevens in early January. Stevens will lose his office Tuesday, probably by about 25,000 or more votes.

Alaska Democrats, who have had to witness one Alaska GOP figure after another lie through their teeth or convince themselves that "up is down and black is white and right is wrong" since Ted's conviction, can at least rest assured that it isn't only Alaska Republicans that can't handle the truth. Here's Arnold Schwarzenegger over the weekend, commenting on Sen. Barack Obama:

"He needs to do something about those skinny legs, make him do some squats and some bicep curls to build up those scrawny little arms."

Game, set, and match Phil!

This was a VERY good comeback for Ahnold. The idea that physical muscle is somehow a factor in political courage is the thinking of a neanderthal.

And I say this as a past fan of Schwarzenegger back when he was a bodybuilding phenom, and even when he started his acting career.

But as a politician? Not so much.
