Joe Miller's Teabagging supporters are starting to panic!

From ADN:

The plea by Tea Party Express was posted on a website dedicated to rallying voters behind candidates Sarah Palin has endorsed. A spokesman for the California-based group didn't immediately return messages Friday. Miller's campaign also didn't return a message.

The group, in its plea, said "problems are emerging" in Alaska. It cites a poll showing a tight race between Miller, Sen. Lisa Murkowski and Democrat Scott McAdams. It also notes McAdams' recent report of raising $685,000 over eight weeks and an independent group's spending nearly $600,000 to support Murkowski.

"Friends, we worked too hard, spent too much money and accomplished what many thought was unthinkable in helping Joe Miller win the Republican nomination for Senate in Alaska," the plea reads. "We can't let that all go to waste and lose this race."

You know unless they have enough money to buy Miller a conscience, and some ethics, I don't think that throwing money at his campaign is going to do much to solve the problem.  I have not seen a candidate with this many skeletons in their closet since...well since Sarah Palin.

Overwhelmed by the shear number of scandals that keep cropping up around Joe Miller, and desperate to get back on the offensive, the Miller supporters have now decided to simply make up a scandal to use against Lisa Murkowski.

With the Alaska Senate race getting meaner by the day and the fallout spreading far and wide, a Washington, D.C.-based website has entered the fray with allegations incumbent Sen. Lisa Murkowski "routinely abused cocaine."

A write-in candidate against Joe Miller, the man to whom she lost in the Alaska GOP primary, and Democrat Scott McAdams, Murkowski has faced these accusations before, although never publicly. The claims came up in 2004 and were denied. They were not published at that time because reporters could find no evidence to buttress the allegations. There is still no evidence, but the claims are out there now, and the popular pro-Sarah Palin website Conservatives4Palin.com has joined the fray in pushing the charges and challenging the Anchorage Daily News and the Alaska Dispatch to investigate.

I have lived in Alaska my entire life, and followed politics closely here for the last ten years, and I can say unequivocally that his is bullshit!  There is PLENTY to go after Lisa Murkowski for, including the fact that she allowed energy lobbyists to write her legislation and that she routinely votes against projects that Alaskans desperately need, only a coward wold make up allegations of substance abuse to attack her with!

And now that he has been pulled into the harsh sunlight the source used to make these scurrilous charges is flip flopping like a salmon on a riverbank.

That source, according to the website, is Richard (Rick) J. Helms, a former "crime prevention specialist" for the Anchorage Police Department, an opponent of Murkowski's when she ran for the state House in 1998, and now an attorney in Anchorage. The website says Helms in 1998 told Murkowski that he'd heard she used coke, but that he wouldn't make it a campaign issue. The website went on to quote Helms saying that Murkowski subsequently sent him "a handwritten note a couple of days later with some comments about the party, issues and mentioned that she would hold me to my word regarding me not mentioning the cocaine during our campaign."

In a telephone interview Wednesday, Helms said he didn't think he was quoted accurately. He said the note, which he doesn't have any more, promised to hold him to his word that he wouldn't bring up unsubstantiated accusations of cocaine use. Helms added that he has no idea as to the validity of those accusations.

"I don't have any direct knowledge," he said. "I thought there was something to it, but you never know in these political campaigns."

It is worth noting that the website making these charges is the same one that tried to paint me as a pedophile last September when I broke the story about the Palin's marital woes.  They don't do research so much as simply take things out of context and then invent connections between unrelated pieces of data in an attempt to smear their target.

When it happened to me the guy, Dan Riehl, bragged on his blog about having numerous phone conversations with Sarah Palin's attorney Thomas Van Flein. Who coincidentally now ALSO represents Joe Miller.  Beginning to see the connection?

Now I am not supporting Murkowski's candidacy, and I want every Alaskan who reads this to vote for Scott McAdams, but ALL Alaskans need to tell Joe Miller and his Palin-bot supporters that we will stand up and defend one of our own from the lies and smears that come from outside agitators every goddamn time!

And take note my friends,  if Miller DOES somehow win this thing, that we will continue to see this same kind of vicious attack launched against ANYBODY who dares to point out that he is not doing his job in Washington, or that he is serving Sarah Palin instead of the people of our great state.  You can count on it!

So if you don't want to empower the people who serve at Sarah Palin's beck and call, and are more than willing to make up egregious lies about those who dare challenge their candidates, then you want to vote for the one candidate who can send Joe Miller scurrying back to Palin-ville with his tail between his legs. And that candidate is Democrat, current Sitka mayor, and all around great guy, Scott McAdams.
