ANCHORAGE, Alaska – Backed by the Tea Party Express and Sarah Palin, a little-known conservative lawyer from Alaska became the latest newcomer to the national political stage to take down an incumbent in 2010.
In arguably the biggest political upset of the year, Joe Miller claimed the Republican nomination for U.S. Senate when incumbent GOP Sen. Lisa Murkowski conceded Tuesday evening. Murkowski gave up after failing to gain much ground in an count of outstanding absentee ballots.
Miller will be the favorite in November in strongly Republican Alaska against Democrat Scott McAdams, the mayor of Sitka.
Get ready for November, America.
Note to Conservatives:
Do NOT flag; do not fail; do not let down.
Now is the time to re-double our efforts in order to defeat Leftists, Demorats and Socialists.
NOW is the time to volunteer your ability to walk districts. NOW is the time to cut checks to your specific Conservative candidates — and not necessarily those of the GOP.
NOW is the time to send cash to Marco Rubio, Sharron Angle.
NOW is the time to defeat Barbara Boxer, Dianne Feinstein.
NOW is the time to take back the House and then, possibly, the Senate.
Are the tides possibly turning . . . . ?
