McCain's call for Stevens to step down is the last nail in the coffin--unless somehow they can replace Stevens on the ballot at the last minute. But at any rate, the three electoral votes are going to go for McCain-Palin for Pres/VP almost certainly.Dr. Strangelovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14407042105777411150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6762928.post-7388952761973943972008-10-28T09:44:00.000-07:002008-10-28T09:44:00.000-07:00McCain has now said Ted Stevens should step down b...McCain has now said Ted Stevens should step down but doesn't that mean that the Democrat Begich should win handily?

Todd Palin's "buddies" turn out to be the same contractor that, rather surprisingly, got the bid to build that oversized sports center that Sarah Palin mortgaged Wasilla's budget to when she was Mayor.Raised By Republicanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03461006522141969925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6762928.post-58990606034280866782008-10-27T14:15:00.000-07:002008-10-27T14:15:00.000-07:00I guess what I was really asking is this: it stand...I guess what I was really asking is this: it stands to reason that more Alaskans will come out to the polls for Sarah Palin than would have otherwise.
