Such a shame that Yellowstone County didn't break more for Burns. He needed a 3-4% separation and only got 2%.
Incidentally, Libertarians, assuming that they would have broken Republican given the chance, would have clearly given Burns the victory.
Third-Party may have sunk this one.
Unfortunately the libertarian vote wasters will turn out to be the difference.
The GOP lost their nerve back when the Clinton's compiled all their FBI files. None of them have dared to take a stand on principle since then!
The GOP wrote off Montana months ago and only re-focused here in the last couple of weeks.
Maybe next time we wont take fly-over states like Montana for granted as being of no consequences to a national election like Florida and Ohio has been in past elections!
