ot buy a jet?
Alaska plans to sell former governor’s folly on e b a y
And – lest you think that is the ONLY reason murky lost the election – oooooooohhhhh noooooooo – taint so. It COULD be because he is so haughty and full of himself – the fact that he doesn’t listen to his constituents (as on the purchase of said jet) – or maybe, just maybe . . . that he pulled some nonsense when he named his own daughter to fill out his US Senate term.
It’s not so much that he named his daughter, but the fact that he was going to do that all along, yet strung out the state’s people AND several other people who thought they might have been given the nod.
Alaska’s people don’t take lightly being made fools of – either in person or in the press. It was pretty common talk about a month into murky’s term of office that he would be a one-termer, that is, a governor who would not have a snowball’s chance in Miami of winning a second election.
He went a long way to make sure he shot himself in his own foot, though – he made an easy target – in a way, we’ll miss that. We’ll have to find some other poor soul to pick at now.
so far – it won’t be the new governor.
