WASHINGTON - Republican Rep. Denny Rehberg will not challenge Montana Sen. Max Baucus in 2008, the state Republican party announced Thursday.

In a statement issued by the GOP, Rehberg said he will not be a candidate for Senate or governor next year.

Maybe Stan Jones could become a Republican and then show off that oddly colored skin of his yet again as a Republican candidate for the U.S. Senate instead of running as a Libertarian candidate for the U.S. Senate.

Um, no. That would only serve to solidify our reputation as a laughingstock.

In Montana, the Dems paint all the GOP as nutjobs, regardless of our skin color.
