Lisa did the right thing!

lisamurkowski MittRomney Why are you leaving conservative values? This is someone who doesn’t care about child pornography cases at all. What’s has happened to your values? I am very ashamed & embarrassed Mr Romney that I supported you back in 2012. This is lifetime appointment

There is no party platform that is for the people, it is all posturing. When every seat is owned by a corp, who is in charge? We The People no longer exists, it’s all corporate interests.

Alaskans don’t listen to this woman anymore. Need to end this bad dynasty.

No surprises here. Murkowski is not a supporter of our Constitution.

Good, but we don't celebrate until it actually happens.

Only KellyForAlaska can save us now. She knows windmills when she sees them, and she knows how to tilt. That's what true Conservatives do.
