Pride come before a fall. Before you give the race to Murkowski consider this:
Alaska is the fourth most conservative state in the nation. However we have the fourth most LIBERAL Republican senator! This the first real test Murkowski has ever faced.

Joe Miller has struck terror into the heart of Murkowski and her big labor, big corporate, big government cronies. She thought she would be able to just quietly sail right through this primary back into office. NOT SO. Alaskans along with the rest of the country have awaken to the imminent danger looming just a very short time away for this country with insolvency, financial ruin and collapse if spending cuts and other measures are not put in place immediately. It is imperative, that we elect a strong conservative constitutionalist who will valiantly stand to secure states and citizen rights and freedoms before all is lost to global government and tyranny.

Joe Miller is such a man, who will be unafraid to stand on true Constitutional American law of enumerated powers. I have worked on a lot of conservative campaigns for many years. Joe Miller is TOP TIER! Joe has the integrity, honor, moral character, knowledge, fortitude, and ability to get the job done that we need in our country. His amazing understanding of Constitutional law along with his sagacious attitude and stalwart perseverance will enable him to empower a coalition in the Senate to bring back the strength and power of the US Constitution to the forefront of American law.

Some night & day differences between Joe Miller & Senator Murkowski:
http://www.joemiller.us/about/candidate-records

Joe Miller
· top 1% of West Point Class of 1989
· received “honors” in the majority of his total graded credit hours at Yale Law School
· 4.0 GPA at the University of Alaska while getting his Masters in Economics
· passed the bar exam the first time

Murkowski
· Failed bar exam multiple times before passing
· Poor grades in law school

Joe Miller
· highest Possible officer evaluation ratings in the military
· at time of appointment, youngest U.S. Magistrate Judge in the nation
· at time of appointment, youngest magistrate in the state
· only judge in the nation serving as both a federal and state judge simultaneously-2002
· In his 6+ years as a judge and magistrate, never reversed on appeal

Murkowski
· Her Facebook resume lacks any reference to her failed experience as an attorney – not one employer listed
· Received $400k+ from oil and then was the sole senator to block increasing the liability cap from $75 million
· Received significant support from VECO, the same group that bribed state legislators
· Her father’s chief of staff served prison time for his role with VECO – while Frank was governor
· Has lied repeatedly about her record – 300 floor votes vs. Republicans, not voting to repeal Obamacare, support of global economy & big government, “being conservative”, etc.

Joe Miller
· Has RSVPed for several debates including one on July 8, and two on 7/22/10
Murkowski
· Has repeatedly ducked debates –one on July 8, two on 7/22/10; canceled Wasilla Chamber just 20 minutes in advance
· Lies about not knowing Joe even though her sister sat on Joe’s steering committee when he ran for statehouse in 2004
· Extreme conflict of interest involved with her father considering and then appointing her to Senate

Just because a person has been elected to office doesn't mean they are worth supporting or voting for. Incumbency means nothing if there is nothing but garbage in their resume.

It is absolutely crystal clear who the real conservative is in the US Senate — AK race is:
Joe Miller US Senate. We can't allow Alaska or the rest of the nation to be fooled or mislead by the counterfeit!
