Yeah Frank is playing the political advantage game.

If Craig stays in the Senate the RATS might win the seat or at least get extra PR across the whole election. If Craig is gone soon and new REPUB take up the seat.

Its old news by election time and their is an incubant.

Except that Risch is not the Governor.

He’s the Lt. Governor.

The Governor is Butch Otter.

Do we really need this ? This whole Craig situation had really gone to the toilet even before Frank opened up and then butted in.

I hadn’t heard of him being accused of “lewd behavior”.
