Lisa Murkowski’s Palin Problem

Joe Miller is the Republican primary challenger to Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski, who was rated No. 5 on the Human Events list of “Top 10 Senate RINOs” (and that was when Arlen Specter was still a Republican). The Aug. 24 Alaska primary is the subject of my latest American Spectator column:  Any disinterested political observer would be tempted […]
