I just got done airing this story and I have to go back soon, so here's the gist:

At the annual trial lawyers convention in July, Governor Schweitzer told a story about the 2006 Senate race that elected Jon Tester over Republican incumbent Conrad Burns.

I don't want to contribute to Palin fatigue, so I'll try to keep this on McCain as much as I can. But no promises...

I've hardly seen any of this Kerry stuff over the past couple days, but I'm still sick of it. So I'll just say that Kerry isn't the subject of this entry, but his remarks and more importantly Keith Olbermann's commentary tonight are the tipping point. Read More

Since this is my first diary, I'd better lay a few things out:

I'm from Big Sandy, Montana. I know Jon Tester. He went to school with my parents and I went to school with his kids. You'd think in a town of less than 700 people, when a man as upstanding as Jon runs for the U.S. Senate, everyone could turn out and support him.
