The Hardliner did a nice job of summarizing Montana Supreme Court Justice Pat Cotter's record of voting overwhelmingly with the desires of the Montana Trial Lawyer's Association and the ACLU. Also pointed out is that the MTLA's PAC spent over $100,000 getting her elected in 2000 -- and as noted, that has been money well-spent.

Usually, a Montana Headlines post won't be linked to directly, but there isn't a real corresponding news story other than in the posts from the Hardliner blog that are linked to in the piece (well-worth reading for the documentation of specific cases and specific big trial-lawyer donors to Supreme Court races.)

This is really of narrow interest to Montana itself, since it is one of our state Supreme Court races. But it is illustrative of just one more area where deep inroads have been made by Democrats in Montana.

It thus may be of interest to those in the broader conservative community who are interested in what is going on up in Big Sky Country.
