Too many Alaskans still perceive Ethan as a citified carpetbagger and not a real Alaskan. His own commercials didn't really help his campaign, either.<br /><br />I think Harry COULD beat Don IF he spends all his spare time connecting to folks in communities other than Los Anchorage and Mat-Su. He needs to campaign with a lot of personal contact and recruit a lot of loyal volunteers who can door-to-door for and with him.HarpboyAKnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2083200247132907218.post-38708903084610999062009-09-16T12:52:21.528-08:002009-09-16T12:52:21.528-08:00Israel?

My comment concerned the amount of time Phil likes to jack his jaw as opposed to the amount of time Phil believes other people (whom he disagrees with) should jack their jaws. <br /><br />And I honestly don't give a rats ass what you think of my thoughts on Israel.

They didn't resonate with Alaskans, they were of shoddy production value, and they aired ALL THE TIME. Next time, make a good ad and buy less time. Next time, do your research- Alaskan voters historically are suspicious of "outside influences". Next time, ask an Alaskan! Obviously you cannot coordinate with the campaign, but try another avenue.

If you could not beat Don last time, it will be harder this time. Don has rebounded a bit since the last election. <br /><br />This will be the first election since a new president was elected. Traditionally the other party does well. The Obama honeymoon is over and there will be a huge Anti Obama vote in Alaska. Remember 1994 during Clinton's first term, the republicans in Alaska had their best year ever.<br /><br />Halcro is seen by Republicans more as a self involved liberal with an R next to his name. He has Daddy;s money to spend so he has a chance. However it is a closed primary and Halcro is pro choice and Don will have the NRA endorsement. Both big issues in a Republican Primary. <br /><br />Pre Season prediction has Don 55-45 next August<br /><br />Harry will be competitive, he might have beat Don last time. He is more moderate than Ethan and not viewed as an egotistical slick talker. Harry will do well with moderate down to earth Alaska voters. However the political tide has changed and it will be a tough political enviroment For Ds in Alaska in 2010. <br /><br />Pre Season Betting Line has Don 53-47 in Nov 2011<br /><br />Now what if Don is indicted by the Feds and loses?<br /><br />A Halcro v Crawford match would be wild. No incumbent in the race would bring a lot of both in state and outside money. Both in-State Ds and Rs who have staid out of earlier congressional races would become involved. There are many Ds and Rs who did not want to piss off Don (or felt they owed him for something he did for them) that staid out of his past races. <br /><br />Game on!!! <br /><br />RobertAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
