No State Benefits More than a GOP Senate Takeover than Alabama

Republicans and Democrats. They are all the same.

If Republicans take control of the Senate in 2014, Alabama would likely be the only state with two chairmen of A-level committees. No other state has that level of seniority.
On top of that, the way that the Budget and Appropriations committees interplay with each other would create a unique scenario in which Alabama’s senators would be playing leading roles in shaping U.S. economic policy. There’s a very real potential scenario in which one Alabamian (Sessions) sets the number for how much money the federal government has to spend, and another Alabamian (Shelby) plays a major role in how the money is spent.

Yep. Which is why he has a colossal building named after him at UA.

Agree. I know it won't happen, but I'm voting against both in the primaries. They both voted to continue the Patriot Act.

I kinda like Sessions if only for the fact that the Dems wouldn't confirm him for a federal judgeship. Now they have to listen to him maybe twice a week from the well in the Senate. I imagine if those Dems who voted against him had to do it over, they'd be happy to have him sitting on a bench somewhere out of the limelight.

Their first order of business will declare Alabama National Champions in perpetuity.
New Crimson Nike shirts will hit the web a mere seconds later asking:
"GOT INFINITY?"

Shelby isn't up for reelection this year, and no one filed to run against Sessions in either the primary or the general election.
