Oh please, oh please, oh please! Del sent me word this morning that Anchorage mayor Mark Begich has opened a small lead over convicted felon Ted Stevens as Alaska continues to count votes in the Senate race. If this holds, not only will the reasonable citizens of Alaska avoid the shame of sending Ted back to Washington to be booted out by his colleagues, but Sarah Palin will be forced to take notice that God has slammed the political door. Again.
