Best news I could have hoped for out of MT. Tester must be crapping his pants.
I wonder, will Gov. Schweitzer go for the House seat? Is he term limited?
Schweitzer has been thinking about ascending to national politics, he’s never ruled out a run for Congress.
He will be term-limited out for 2013. He could go for the House seat, but the problem is that (if he won), he’d be a backbencher in the minority. Whether he’d want to be that is another question. I don’t know what his approval rating is, but after his stunt of bragging about “fixing” the election in MT back several years ago, I wouldn’t think it’d be that high.
