Alaska Sen. Ted Stevens has lost his bid for a seventh term.
The longest-serving Republican in the history of the Senate trailed Anchorage Mayor Mark Begich by 3,724 votes after Tuesday's count.
That's an insurmountable lead with only about 2,500 overseas ballots left to be counted.
Stevens, who turned 85 Tuesday, also revealed that he will not ask President George W. Bush to give him a pardon for his seven felony convictions.

Where's the WWE's Vince McMahon when we need him? I'd love to see him tell this dirtbag, "Ted Stevens, YOU"RE FIRED!" in only the way Vince can do it. Love to see him do that to Palin next.
