So
Fox is starting to to show primary results...just the non-existant presidential primary so far.
No interest in that, waiting on pins and needles for the result of Sen. Lugars seat.
For what it's worth I voted for Mourdock.
Some folkes say that voting Lugar out conceeds the seat to the democrats.
If one lives south of Plainfield one would not have that idea.
-
Fox calls it...Lugar goes down.
Will be interesting if he tries to go indi or dem.

It wouldn't surprise me if he does.

Wouldn't surprise me if he goes Dem/Ind either, but he needs to remember Arlen Specter.

Just one line from the article..
Mourdock appeared to be headed for a landslide victory.

Yeah, I'm no politicol oracle but I'm pretty sure he goes down by a good margin, just judging from driving around morgan county.
This does kind of put us in the wind a bit I guess but I'm ok with that, Lugar was a DC political animal.
More worried about DC politics, not so much with Indiana.
Besides, hes got such a nice farm, he should go and enjoy it.

Any indication if Lugar is going to play spoiler and run as an Independent? also how does it look for Mourdock against the Dem Candidate?

Good. Primary season is the time to weed out the crap and general election season is the time to stand together. It will be interesting to see if the soon to be former Senator Lugar has the interests of the people of Indiana or himself at heart.
-
Based on what I read and saw on the news, Lugar is not permitted to run as an Indie or a Dem following his loss in his Repub primary.
Indiana recently passed a law that prohibits that kind of crap from happening, as seen in Specter in PA and Jeffords in VT.
No, Dickie. You lost your primary. That means you go home. Pack your bags, asshole. You're done. You're also 80 years old. Time you went out to pasture, you power-hungry ****stick.
-
80, that's ridiculous. That job is just a little *too* cushy. You can't get these guys out with dynamite.
That moonbat Bill Bradley was on F&F this morning, all butthurt about Luger. There's something unseemly, I think, about one politician railing against the citizens of another geographic area, when something doesn't go his way. Not your call, Bradley, not even your business.

It seems the DemonRats are more upset about Lugar's loss than the republicans. More moderate republicans had better heed the warning, the TEA Party is not dead.

Farm? What farm? Luger hasn't maintained a residence in Indiana in years. That revelation alone probably cost him 5 points at the polls.
