• People had to be convinced (Scott McAdams) could beat Joe Miller, and if he had two more weeks he could have done that. Scott would have won if Lisa hadn’t jumped in.
• Alaska Democratic Party spokesperson Deborah Williams • Sounding bullish about Scott McAdams’ future success in Alaska politics. McAdams entered the Senate race with the mere intention of drawing attention towards his own political abilities, which the election did – and then some. Even though he lost Tuesday (unlike Joe Miller, he conceded to Lisa Murkowski already), his political stock went way up in a race which drew disproportionate amounts of attention thanks to the war of words between the other two candidates. “He could look at anything from state senator to governor to Congress,” Williams said. “He’s certainly got options.” See, being a third party to an unbelievably messy situation can be beneficial sometimes! source
