I'd much rather have Murkowski than the idiot Miller.. Although I'd rather have the Democrat, who also has a chance. But denying her capability to win doesn't change the fact she does have a chance. My prediction: Miller won't win in Alaska. Either Murkowski or the Democrat will.
Anchorage Daily News said:Was Joe Miller required to bring a security detail to his town hall meeting Sunday at Central Middle School?
That's what Miller, the Republican Senate candidate, told two national cable news networks Monday in the wake of the arrest by his security squad of an online journalist at his public event.
But the school district said there was no such requirement made of Miller . . . "We do not require users to hire security," she said. . . .
Meanwhile, the Army says that two of the guards who assisted in the arrest of the journalist and who tried to prevent two other reporters from filming the detention were active-duty soldiers moonlighting for Miller's security contractor, the Drop Zone, a Spenard surplus store and protection service.
The soldiers, Spc. Tyler Ellingboe, 22, and Sgt. Alexander Valdez, 31, are assigned to the 3rd Maneuver Enhancement Brigade at Fort Richardson. Maj. Bill Coppernoll, the public affairs officer for the Army in Alaska, said the two soldiers did not have permission from their current chain of command to work for the Drop Zone, but the Army was still researching whether previous company or brigade commanders authorized their employment.
Department of Defense Directive 1344.10 said:"A member on AD [active duty] shall not: ... [p]articipate in partisan political management, campaigns, or conventions... A member of the Armed Forces on active duty shall not: . . . [p]erform clerical or other duties for a partisan political committee or candidate during a campaign."
