She had a chance until that lie detector ad. Even her base realizes she has no class after that one.

Ther's no candidate I enjoyed seeing defeated more than Marilyn Musgrave. She's an angry, bitter, hateful person who should never have been elected in the first place.

I had the pleasure of helping to vote this old hag out of office. Twas a grand election indeed.

"She has yet to admit defeat,"

This Musgrave sounds like a troll of a woman, but is there some law that says she has to admit defeat? What says she can't just pack up her stuff and move out on her last day without congratulating the winner or officially conceding?

Just because she doesn't "officially" concede, doesn't mean anything.

"not the norm,"


Again, so? She's a biatch and she'll be gone soon. You can't force her to say uncle. It doesn't work that way

"We would have appreciated a call,"


And I want to sleep with Heidi Klum, but it's not going to happen. You won, what the hell are you complaining about?


"There is no doubt that someone in that campaign is not happy about losing," said Bob Duffy, chairman of the Colorado State University political science department.


Wow, glad to see someone explain that difficult concept.

She's a very strange woman. In 2006 her campaign would not give her challenger her phone number, so her challenger had to skip the concession phone call. Of course that didn't stop Musgrave's spokespeople from acting all butthurt that they never received a phone call.

Good riddance Marilyn.

That's certainly legal. She lost by 12 points. It wasn't close. She's just rolling in her own biatchitude.

It really is some of the most epicly petty bullshiat I've seen in a political campaign. And I've payed attention to the Bush administration.

She really is an amazingly sore loser. It is utterly classless.

Ah, good old Rocky Mountain gay-hating. There's a virulent strain of fundamentalism in Colorado that even the state's grandeur cannot compensate for.

 
Generation_D [TotalFark] 2008-11-09 06:19:14 PM  
Nobody's complaining if good sportsmanship, the norm after elections, is expected to be followed. Quite the opposite. Mean spirited, mealy mouthed losers who can't call and congratulate the winners need to be identified, and they need to be mocked, openly. They have no place in the process, no place occupying space on a ballot, no understanding of what it means to be an American.

Most Republicans know that if they aren't gracious in defeat, it will bite them later. Nearly all Democrats know this. But not this Musgrave character, whose name is now synonymous with "bad loser."

 
BuckTurgidson 2008-11-09 06:20:59 PM  
I would love to see her forcibly removed from her office, struggling and screaming, by the Capitol Police.

One of the best riddances this state has seen since the Klan broke up.

Us Republicans should have remained hostile towards Democrats winning on Tuesday night. Bush or McCain should have never called Obama on congratulating his win. Resistance is victory!

No, winning the presidential election is victory. I can see how you'd be confused, though.

You sound like the type of guy that is against tipping waitresses. It's well-acknowledged that conceding, and calling your opponent to congratulate them is not only good form, but the politically savvy thing to do. Nobody likes a sore loser.

Frankly, after the campaign that Musgrave ran, I'm not surprised that she didn't call to congratulate.

Whats the problem, i see Musgrave and a flag representative of her political affiliation, slightly exaggerated.

And theres some other pic of an old lady missing clothes. didn't click that one.

Go back to England where you came from then. You may be a Republican, but you're obviously not an American. I know many Republicans who would dismiss your idea of scorched earth.

It's a wedge issue. That's what wedge issues do. They divide people that aren't capable of forming opinions for themselves. Both parties do it.

What GIS are you using? Bottom of the second column is pretty bad. It goes to this (nsfw). I mean, it doesn't remotely rise to the level of /b/ or the gootse guy's blog, but then again I'm thoroughly and completely jaded.

Wow. Musgrave is a very bad person.

When I was first in Colorado during her last election, her ads stuck out more than any others for just being vile and negative. Then, I got to learn a lot more about her her in CO. I'm really glad that she is no longer going to be in office. She is a very bad person.

I know that she doesn't have to concede or congratulate her opponent, but it is expected the US political tradition. Transfer of office and power is supposed to be a smooth process that proceeds in an orderly and lawful fashion, and with respect for the will of the people.

Her choosing to act this way is contradictory to some of our most deeply held values about government.

 
CrispFlows 2008-11-09 08:55:48 PM  
She - man, her history... WTF?! Corruption and unconstitutional moves? RELIGION WITH STATE?! man, there's something wrong with her. I'm surprised there was no assassination attempts.

Could it be that America has a good self control to not do stuff like that?

There are a great deal of transition issues, mostly involving office staff in Washington, that need to be dealt with. If she's acting all butthurt and refusing to cooperate, well, I suppose that makes her a typical Republican.

It's true that not all gun owners are gay bashers and bible thumpers, but you have to admit that it does seem like all gay bashers and bible thumpers are almost always total gun nuts.
