AK legislators predict that Sullivan will be confirmed

Key members of the Alaska legislature are saying that Attorney General Dan Sullivan, recently appointed by Gov. Sarah Palin, will be confirmed:
"My sense is that he will be confirmed," said Sen. Hollis French, D-Anchorage, chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Sullivan will be confirmed "with accolades," said House Judiciary Committee Chair Jay Ramras, R-Fairbanks, to the Anchorage Daily News.

[...]

Sen. Lesil McGuire, R-Anchorage, vice chair of Judiciary, called Sullivan "incredibly accomplished and professional."

Senate Minority Leader Gene Therriault, R-Anchorage, also a member of the Judiciary Committee, said Sullivan's pre-Alaska bar experience shouldn't be discounted.

  1. Sullivan has military, foreign policy, and energy cred, looks like he may be a good adviser and maybe even a VP pick in the future.
