this is a risk for murkowski.hen it comes time for 2016 she has to run as the bipartisan moderate at a time when the conservatives are angry with her for a number of votes she's been taking over the years. watch for murkowski to navigate this line but still try to refute begich's suggestions they work in a bipartisan manner for one big reason. if begich loses and republicans take majority she could become chairman of the energy economy, a powerful perch. >> a little self-interested play here. >> phil rucker had a fun piece in "the washington post" this woke about bruce braley in iowa, the senator candidate who had a dispute over chickens over a property at his vacation home. it touched on an important theme, though, democrats are actually more scared about losing this race than they were a few months ago and republicans feel really emboldled, outside republican spending on the race quintupled over the last month. outside groups are looking into going heavier because of braley's self-inflicted wounds and rand paul
