Don Young's entire career has been him being a huge ass. I can't imagine he'll lose because of this, but it'd be great if he did, because this seat would be easy pickens in 2016.

AK's probably too conservative for him to actually lose over this alone, but it does move the race from Safe R to Likely R.

Meh, this is typical Don Young behavior. I doubt this even moves an inch.

This is the man who once threatened to club someone with a walrus penis bone.

If Mark Begich gets defeated this year, would challenging Young for this seat in 2016 be a reasonable option?

Isn't the real story here that Young admitted to murdering someone in the past? Tongue

So now we know what happened to Nick Begich (father of the current Senator).  Begich had one last laugh from wherever his body ended up, he beat Don Young by 12 points in 1972, despite Nixon's landslide. However, Don Young was able to beat any alive Democrats.

Let's face it: Democrats must run a dead guy to get rid off Young.

You'd have to keep running a dead guy in special election after special election to keep the seat vacant.

The local prosecutor isn't doing his job. That guy should be prosecuted for death threats very quickly.

Don Young starts blaming the friends of a suicide victim for his suicide.  Unfortunately, it wasn't recorded, but it seems like all of the staff who were there are corroborating the story: http://www.adn.com/article/20141021/young-rattles-wasilla-high-students-hurtful-remark-about-suicide

Is there anything that Young could do in order to lose reelection? I feel like he would still win even if he kicked a puppy on live tv

Dead boy or live horse.

If he murders his opponent, Young doesn't have a good record of defeating dead candidates.

Dan Sullivan seems like a relatively normal, if boring, guy.

Don Young decides it wasn't the kid's friends who led to his suicide, but instead probably government handouts: http://www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddow-show/don-young-digs-deeper-blames-suicide-public-benefits
