Murray may have lots of trial lawyer and lobbyist money but she doesn’t talk with her constituents. She refused to hold townhall meetings. She sends out unrelated form letter responses. She rubber stamps the Obama appointments. She doesn’t have an independent bone in her body. She strongly supports unrestricted partial birth abortion. She supports gun control (NRA gives her an “F”). She may have the union bosses in her pocket but people who want the best education want education choice. Most of us don’t want government run healthcare. Murray prevents America from tapping its $40 Trillion in oil assets (which could create hundreds of thousands of union jobs, and help balance the budget, and make our foreign policy easier).

Murray has proven to be in over her head even with years of experience.

I lived in Washington for 24 years and Washington just loves her. I don’t know WHY Washington loves her, but they do. The State GOP keeps throwing candidates at her that look good on paper, and they all get crushed.

Cantwell, I can understand. I vote against her, I’m a Republican, but she’s reasonably intelligent, hardworking and pragmatic. She’s capable at least.

Murray, on the other hand, seems to see the Government as nothing more then a giant ATM machine which she hits up for her favorite programs. She doesn’t seem to understand much beyond that. Yet she just does her “Mom in tennis shoes” schtick, and she wins big nomatter what.

:sigh: ah well. While she’s stupid, at least she’s not vicious and rude like Barbara Boxer.
