If she’ll give us a chance, we’re happy to do the same for her.
HA! Who says a Democrat hasn’t held a statewide constitutional office since 1998! Look at us now!
Certainly a surprising (and intriguing) way to kick-off the state convention.

She would make a good candidate for governor in 2010 and a good candidate to replace Hagel whenever he retires.

The door to the Democratic Party swings really wide, and our Welcome mat is more than just a tool to scrape the BS off the shoes.

“Hagel asked: “Where is the fiscal responsibility of the party I joined in ‘68? Where is the international engagement of the party I joined _ fair, free trade, individual responsibility, not building a bigger government, but building a smaller government?
I doubt that Ms. Wiek and Sen Hagel are the only persons who believe the GOP has lost its way.

At the very least he could begin to vote in line with his party and remain consistent with his statements on the Sunday morning talk shows. ;-)
