6 time (R) Senator Lugar is taking an early beating in Indiana

[IamK]

this may be called early... 12% counted, Mourdock 61%, Lugar 39%.... Results have not changed since 2%

1. 36 years is too long.

I don't even like it when there are Democrats who serve that long.

There is plenty of talent out there ... no one is indispensable.

Lugar was arrogant to ask for another term, especially at his age.

3. Yep. I like Pat Leahy who is one of my Senators

but he was elected in 1974 to the Senate. He's been there almost 40 years. He's up for election again in November and I'll vote for him, but I wish he'd bowed out.

2. So who is Mourdock? A crazy Tea Partier?

?

7. Yes. He is a teabagger.

9. GOOD! That means the GOP is on the Highway to Hell!

4. So there will be someone even worse than Lugar in office next year?

Or is there a chance to get a Dem in there?

[IamK]

5. who ever wins will be more conservative..

Mourdock is tea party, (D) Donnelly is one of the most conservative D's in the house....

6. Not like they will elect anything else in Indiana.
