PPP probably wasn't far off.

[I spent the winter writing songs about getting better]

Obama still has a 40% approval rating in Alaska? Not bad.

[JohnnyLongtorso]

And Berkowitz is doing better than in Rasmussen's polling.

[Eraserhead]

Interesting.

[Citizen (The) Doctor]

Hmm...how strange.  This might point to depolarization of Alaska.

[You kip if you want to...]

Imagine if Alaska had two Democrats in the senate. Ah, I can dream.

Yes, you can.

They both look weird, if we're judging by appearances.

I think miller isn't a bad campaigner. but mcadams will surprise everybody. and I have said this before, but alaska will be a democratstate in the nest 10-15 year. only wait.

Hahaha

That's a good laugh

If this was a super safe lock, I don't think the NRSC would have polled it. They know that some extra work has to be put in here.

Alaska is one of the most non-religious states. obama was leading here until mccain picked palin. and democrats here are very very moderate. so, I still think alaska will change in the next years.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

Miller is favored to win this state, but it can become more competetive down the line.
