I firmly believe that Tester puts in a call to Max or one of Reid’s staff every morning to get his schedule for the john that day.
Tester is in trouble with Rehberg deciding to get in the race, no doubt about it. They are on equal footing financially and Rehberg has run and won 6 statewide races in Montana, compared to Tester’s lone victory in 2006. Tester’s 3,500 vote victory against scandal-plagued Conrad Burns is insignificant when you consider that Rehberg received nearly 40,000 more total votes while being re-elected to the House on the same ballot in 2006. I realize that Montana has elected plenty of Democrats statewide, with Baucus and Schweitzer winning races recently. Rehberg should be able to take this seat back and his chances are only better without having to use resources on a primary challenge.
