This is a pretty good story told me to me by my friend Sharon.  Sharon watches politics like a hawk and that’s why I love her.

Sharon discovered that there is a Joe Miller in  Texas, who had an amazing encounter with Joe Miller from Alaska.  There is a Google cache of Texas Joe’s story, but it boils down to this:  Alaska Joe contacted Texas Joe and wanted to buy his domain name which was joemillerdotcom.  Texas Joe wasn’t willing to sell because he’s a photographer and and likes his name as his domain.  But, Alaska Joe was insistent, saying he was willing to several thousand dollars for the site name.

Well, several thousand dollars is some major money so Texas Joe was willing to talk until ….

His offer of “several thousand dollars” changed over the next few days as he kept going lower and lower with his offers, telling me it wasn’t worth much. He kept e-mailing with different reasons why he couldn’t pay “several thousand dollars”. Why hell, I didn’t want to sell it in the first place. My opinion of the guy was that he was really not a very good negotiator and we ended up with no deal and I was sort of upset at myself for wasting all that back-and-forth time with someone who turned out to be full of wind.

A Republican full of wind?  Nooooooo….

According to Sharon, the story gets better.

It seems that Joe Miller from Alaska got these irate e-mails from Todd Palin and meant to forward them to himself at his campaign address and he sent them by mistake to www.joemiller.com instead of www.joemiller.us. They arrived at the doorstep of your Texas Joe Miller, who did some research and sent them to AKM (Jeanne Devon) at Mudflats! The rest is viral history. Don’t you just love it? Apparently there is more information to be revealed after the election. Dumber than a box of rocks, are these Republicans.

Alaska Joe

So, the guy running for the United States Senate from Alaska makes Sarah Palin look like a stinkin’ genius.  What’s the deal in Alaska – they put brains on ice or something?

So, we might end up with a guy in the Senate who cannot even email himself.  However, he will be the smartest Republican in the Senate.
