I agree, AnotherReader.  Murkowski's no centrist.  As yet another example, let's remember that she also voted against legislation addressing Violence Against Women in Alaska.  Indeed, Murkowski has usually voted exactly as Joe Miller would have, but she still recites her misleading platitudes, like she did throughout her 2010 write-in campaign as a fake-independent.  And while she'll attend AFN meetings to say whatever can benefit HER, she also takes Alaska Native voters for granted. In sum, like her corrupt father Frank, Lisa Murkowski lacks integrity, a fact we first saw when they connived to have Governor Daddy appoint her (a sub-par lawyer) to the U.S. Senate.
