The person saying this is McGinniss, who apparently was a candidate for this seat at one point but dropped out to support Shaeffer.

HERE is what Walt Klien said: Walt Klein, chief campaign consultant for Schaffer, said the former congressman really did not have much of a reaction to Wolf’s intent to run for Allard’s seat.

I don't know why you didn't quote what he said, but the implication that he was the one quoted in the piece is wrong.

This may pop up some next year :

Sept. 11 is the anniversary of a date when Americans going about their business were killed in cold blood by religious zealots: This is the 150th anniversary of the Mountain Meadows Massacre.

It happened near Cedar City, Utah. Just about everything except the date and location remain subjects of contention to this day.

Just how many died remains unknown, with estimates ranging from 80 to 130. Various investigations were interrupted by the Civil War, and the extent of formal LDS involvement is something historians and history buffs still argue about.

The only person formally charged in the massacre was John Doyle Lee, local constable and Indian agent. He was tried and convicted, then executed by a firing squad in 1877 at Mountain Meadows.

Lee’s great-great-grandson, Mark Udall, is running for U.S. Senate from Colorado.
