Senate hopeful MARK BEGICH (D) for U.S. Senate vs. 40 year incumbant Sen. Ted Stevens is finally feeling the pinch of defeat--and has started with a classical GOP mud-slinging campaign; counter-claiming/ smearing on Mark's TV ads.

As of yesterday, MARK BEGICH has out fund-raised Sen. Ted Stevens... but we all know that Stevens does not need to necessarily "fundraise". So the numbers are important mainly as a symbolic victory for Mark; and a REALITY for his campaign--to afford to stand up to the Ancient GOP Dragon of the U.S. Senate.

But Stevens is getting real concerned. He is about to spend more time in Alaska than he has in the past 25 years--kissing Yupiks butt-cheeks, and rubbing noses with Inuits; as well as lining the pockets of Alaskan media moguls and State legislators... and having his pockets lined by Industrial CEOs. This is the Alaskan GOP, motis operendi... only HE IS THE UNCONTESTED MASTER of the REPUBLICAN-SITH-GUARD... if there ever was one.

But this year is completely different. The "status quo" and the general apathy of the people does not stand... BARACK OBAMA has TURNED the KEY to DEMOCRATS everywhere.

ALASKAN DEMOCRACY is unhinged and TOTALLY OFF THE HOOK!

Barack Obama is coming to Alaska especially to SEE through victories like MARK BEGICH for U.S. SENATE and take down TED STEVENS. Do you believe people?

In J.R.R. Tolkein's 'The Hobbit' they didn't think that 'ole bastard ancient Dragon "SMAUG" could be defeated; and then a little guy came along...

The BIGGER THEY ARE; the HARDER they FALL; and the NASTIER.

And he knows it. It will be EPIC! I have begun a personal InterState campaign for contributions to THIS, the MOST CRITICAL (and WINNABLE) SENATE RACE of my generation.

BEGICH challenges the Dragon STEVENS.

"YES WE CAN, and WE WILL."

I did not know about the great POLL site util you put it up--thank you by the way! I have thrown the link on my profile--but the candidates released their campaign fundraising numbers on the 15th or 16th and MARK BEGICH has pulled ahead of TED STEVENS.

Beyond that--I can tell you that his message and his philosophy is BIPARTISAN and his strong stance upholding and supporting the 2nd Amendment is SWINGING and WINNING a lot of Undecideds, Independants and Nonpartisan Moderate Conservatives (PROBABLY the greatest factor in the ALASKA campaign).

I can tell you that; as I personally CANVASS for MARK BEGICH, people's hearts are with Barack Obama, the people are with Begich; People ARE SICK of TED STEVENS; People ARE SICK of GEORGE BUSH; People are SICK of the GRAND OLD PARTY.

The Great State of ALASKA is ready for CHANGE!

ALASKA will be the CHANGE! Alaska is going blue, don't doubt it--believe and it will be so.

Another Dem in the Senate would look nice.

Ted Stevens is not "another Dem in the Senate" to replace... HE IS THE SENATE SEAT WE MUST HAVE; and con-currently, THE Republican we must beat. I think Democrats have forgotten what TED STEVENS represents.
  
I forgot about Ted Stevens

considering him and of course Mitch McConnell from Kentucky, I must move the U.S. Sentator John Cornyn from Texas to third place for the prize of the worst senator in the Senate.

Is there anyone who can offer a better candidate for the #3 slot than John Cornyn? If so please post that Senator's name, state and a laundry list of what he has/has not done.
