Could this be the end of Ted "bridge to nowhere" Stevens???
"New polls show some character named “Mark Begich,” reportedly the mayor of Anchorage, ahead by two whole points. Also, 61% of Alaskans would like to see Ted Stevens banished to a crab trap at the bottom of the Bering Strait, while only 27% would enjoy sending Begich to the watery deep."

3. Ted's in trouble up here for sure.
That "character" Mark Begich's father was a popular Democratic U.S. Representative from Alaska back in the early '70s, before he was killed in a mysterious plane crash, the wreckage of which has never been found. Even though Rep. Begich had been missing and presumed dead for two weeks at the time of the election in 1972, he defeated his opponent, POS Republican Don Young. Begich was declared dead in December, and subsequently Young won a special election in March 1973. Unfortunately, Young is still there, but I believe this is his last term, as well. In fact, I don't think Young will even make it out of the primaries.

This could very well be the year that Alaska returns to its Democratic roots.
