Not a fan. He's a big fan of the drug war and the patriot act, both of which have been both colossal wastes of money and manpower, as well as rights-violating policies.

Alabama has on occasion held an election to fill the vacant spot. I do think that the Governor would appoint a replacement in this case.
I am sure that Alabama would elect a republican if an election were held, but not sure the Gov would want to change it.

Thanks, Suzanne.

If I've got my civics right, the governor of Alabama will appoint someone. Since Bentley is a Republican, we should have another Republican senator.

Who takes over in the senate for Sessions, and how will it affect legislation?
