Murkowski to Palin: Leave my seat alone

Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski has some Republican-to-Republican advice for Gov. Sarah Palin: If you want to make a run at the White House, keep your hands off my Senate seat.

Murkowski, up for reelection in 2010, is nervously awaiting word on whether John McCain’s former running mate will run against her in the GOP primary. But she says Palin is the one who should be nervous.

“I can guarantee it would be a very tough election,” Murkowski said in an interview.

But Murkowski says a run against her would be fraught with risk. If Palin lost, her stock would drop just ahead of a potential 2012 presidential run. And if she won, she’d be a backbencher in a chamber that is dominated by seniority — and would have to begin her presidential campaign as soon as she took office.

“If she wants to be president, I don’t think the way to the presidency is a short stop in the United States Senate,” Murkowski said.

Lisa better get off her ass and start taking up Uncle Teds slack at the pork barrel, or she really will be in trouble.

I heard this put very well by a local Alaska commentator who said:

'Alaskans don't really care about what goes on in Washington unless the welfare checks don't come  in. If that happens,  ideology and party labels do not matter.'

Well, it would be a really short stop for her. Obama at least served for two years before he started campaigning. Palin would have to start campaigning immediately.
