Hard to admire any repug. Easy to respect and admire women that stand up to bullying and chauvinsim for their beliefs. I respect Murkowski and Collins a great deal. I also disagree with them a lot of the time. That is what democracy embraces. The GOP has become a mafia like organization and not a political organization. Murkowski, Collins, and even McCain put themselves above the GOP Cosa nostra.
