Sadly, Morrison will be the next Senator from Montana. He is not nearly as much of an A-hole as Schweitzer, and has wide support in all areas of the State. His dad, Frank, recently passed away unexpectedly, which deprives him of a saavy advisor and campaigner, but also gives him incentive to win one in dad's memory. No matter who the GOP candidate is, he's toast. The state party is in shambles, thanks to Uncle Marc. What a jerk.
Filing deadlines for this race?
The filing deadline is Thursday.
Then Denny Rehberg doesn't have much time to make a decision (as he hasn't filed for anything yet).
Hopefully, Rehberg will file for the Senate regardless of what Conrad Burns does.
Ooops. Unless Burns pulls a Gallegly...
You dont' think Rehberg could beat Morrison?
Didn't Morrison oppose the state's voter-approved ban on gay marriage?
No. He told the Billings Gazette a week or so ago he has no intention of bowing out.
With the Californication of formerly strong GOP areas like the Flathead, Morrison will win as handily as Schweitzer did.
