Good. What a nitwit.

Walsh will serve out the rest of his Senate term, which ends in early January 2015.

Anything to cling to power as long as possible and deny a replacement a jump on seniority . . . whom they obviously don't expect to be another RAT.

[SoFloFreeper]

See ya, Biden, Jr.

[Nervous Tick]

>> his campaign was distracted by the controversy over allegations that he plagiarized

If there’s a prize for “contorted”, Walsh wins.

Maybe the RINO candidate for House can run as the Senate Democrat.

[Verginius Rufus]

But he is still well-positioned to be the Democratic Vice-Presidential candidate in 2016.

80% of Montana voted to cut welfare to illegals with the ballot measure LR121.

For some reason Jon Tester and Baucus sold out and voted for amnesty. It made absolutely no sense as to why all these red state Dems sold out except to give Schumer 70 votes.

[Repeal The 17th]

From the article:
“... The Montana Democratic Party now will choose
a replacement Senate candidate at a nominating convention by Aug. 20.
About 175 delegates, including statewide and federal elected officials,
county party committee leaders and the party executive board members,
will pick the nominee ...”

Bad news folks....the seat is in play again.

[TimSkalaBim]

The old “Torricelli.”

“I am ending my campaign so that I can focus on fulfilling the responsibility entrusted to me as your U.S. senator,” Walsh said in a statement to supporters. “You deserve someone who will always fight for Montana, and I will.”

Did Walsh write that statement himself, or did he copy it from someone else..just saying

[Responsibility2nd]

The New York Times reported July 23 that Walsh had plagiarized large portions of the research paper in 2007.

_____________________________________

In a self-prepared statement, the Senator said; “Therefore, I shall resign the Presidency effective at noon tomorrow. Er, I mean SENATE.”

Walsh out in MT.

[Ken H]

“I am ending my campaign so that I can focus on fulfilling the responsibility entrusted to me as your U.S. senator,” Walsh said in a statement to supporters. “You deserve someone who will always fight for Montana, and I will.”

'I will now give a farewell speech that I wrote for the occasion. Four score and seven years ago...'

They can’t run Schweitzer after he called Dianne Feinstein a whore.

[MinuteGal]

I see the race mentioned above has a Libertarian on the ballot, trying to screw up the Republican's chances once again.

Same old story.

....and so many freepers just LUV those feisty, free-spirited, pot-puffin' Libertarians and their boyish, cutey-pie frontman, John Stossell.....completely forgetting, for example how Ross Perot (not a Libertarian, just a billionaire spoiler) drained off votes, money and energy from GHWB....and we got the pervert liar, Bubba Clinton for 8 years.

The more things change, the more they remain the same.

So instead of admitting his wrongdoing and apologizing, he dismisses it as a distraction. He’s seems qualified for the Senate to me. He’ll fit right in with the other crooks.

[Duckdog]

Guess he didn’t think he could make up being 13 points behind Daines.
