Lena Murzanski: GOP Leaders Turned Their Back On My Nomination As Soon As I Lost The Nomination And Then Quit The GOP

Really?

U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski says she feels as if Republican leaders have turned their backs on her as she mounts a write-in bid to try to hold onto her seat.

Alaska's senior senator told The Associated Press in an interview Monday that the focus in Washington seems to have become more about "adding numbers to the team" and less about the quality of the candidate.

Really? Really?

Maybe it's time to reconsider Take Your Daughter to Work Day. Frank

Murkowski, Alaska's former senator and governor, took little Lisa to work in 2002, and now she refuses to go home. Shortly after taking office as governor, Mr. Murkowski appointed Miss Murkowski to the Senate seat he had just vacated. She was elected in her own right in 2004, but this year Alaska Republicans decided it was time for a new direction and handed her a primary defeat.

Well, listen up, Alaska voters: You didn't put Miss Murkowski in the Senate, and she'll be damned if she's going to let you throw her out. On Friday she announced that she intends to run a write-in candidacy. (If you want to write her in, her name is spelled M-I-L-L-E-R.)

Thanks to ArthurK and and Andrew Breitbart.

Oh: At Hot Air, video her proclaiming she represents the values of Alaska not the values of Jim DeMint.

She also represents the values of being a sore loser.

That's from DrewM.'s "Murky Facebook Page."
