 Murkowski says she may lose to ‘rubber-stamp Republican’
by Lexi Lonas - 04/28/22 9:26 AM ET

Sen. Lisa Murkowski’s (R-Alaska) said in a new interview it is possible she loses her reelection bid to a “rubber-stamp Republican.”

“I may be the last man standing. I may not be re-elected,” the senator told The New York Times. “It may be that Alaskans say, ‘Nope, we want to go with an absolute, down-the-line, always, always, 100-percent, never-question, rubber-stamp Republican.’

“And if they say that that’s the way that Alaska has gone — kind of the same direction that so many other parts of the country have gone —I have to accept that,” she added. “But I’m going to give them the option.”

Murkowski, who represents a historically independent state, has been known to split with Republicans on important votes, most recently including her vote to confirm Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson to the bench.

She has relied on her bipartisanship and willingness to break from the Republican Party as an asset, the Times noted, however her vote to impeach former President Trump after the Jan. 6 Capitol riot sparked pushback from his supporters.

There is a world of difference between a rubber-stamper and you, Ms. Murkowski.  You could certainly be much more of an actual republican - as opposed to a liberal rubber-stamper (which is what you in fact are) - without becoming a republican rubber-stamper.  Hopefully, the people of Alaska have figured this out by now.

Maybe the Murder Turtle can't pump enough money to her campaign this time?  The pump is already running....

That's the same name they used to call 'Maverick' McCain.

She'll have the Murder Turtle's help again, he's already sending cash her way for '22.
