In reply to AlaskaCodPiece. This is simply wrong - Dan had been to barrow recently and he was in SE

In reply to AlaskaCodPiece. Cod, You brought up weather. I was thinking that candidates are focused on fundraising right now so they can afford to travel off the road system, village to village. According to Sullivan's Facebook page, he was in Barrow on January 17th. Now you can relax.

Ha! Is “warrior” DNR Dan such a woos that he can’t travel the state until the weather is less harsh and unpredictable? That says a lot …

I am eager for him to visit anywhere off the road system.

And no crap for ‘disparaging our military’ with the warrior comment – my father served in two wars and I did Viet Nam.

Cod,
I’ve noticed that you keep repeating that Sullivan hasn’t been to rural AK since he launched his campaign in October. I bet that when spring and summer come around, he’ll be visiting as many towns and villages as he can just like the other candidates. What town/village are you so eager for him to visit?

“…Dan left Alaska to serve our country in the War on Terror in the White House,…”
Boy, you got that right!

I admire DNR Dan’s service, but that doesn’t mean it is a given that he would be a good senator for Alaska. Especially when he has yet to visit three quarters of the State he wants to represent.

These liberal Democrats disgust me. Most of them have never served their nation. This attack by Begich and his squirrels is reprehensible.

So the Dems are attacking Sullivan for walking down the street in DC talking to a Republican strategist? I did a quick inquiry with Google and couldn’t find anything all that nefarious about Dubke??? Who is he and why do we care if Sullivan is seen with him?

Attacking veterans for being deployed is pretty low. You would think a senator who is a member of the Senate Committee on Veterans’ Affairs would know better…

Begich is attacking a man for serving his country at the request of the President and Commander in Chief. I agree with Gunnar, it’s time for vets to support one of their own, Dan Sullivan.

Who would have thought that a guy who has never run for political office before has emerged in less than 6 months to be the candidate that is most feared by Begich, Reid and Obama. Looks like Mead Treadwell has become little more than a foot note in the history of this campaign already. Joe Miller has a certain appeal and charm but can’t win a general election. The Democrats must be scared to death attacking Sullivan at this juncture of the campaign. Sullivan does have a good resume that includes a solid record of serving our country. He was also a Marine. Such a petty attack isn’t going to make a difference. It does show that Begich is afraid of Sullivan. He probably should be. Alaskans don’t care where people are from or how long they’ve lived here. What matters to Alaskans is a person’s character. Dan Sullivan has a whole bunch of that.
