The head of the Dem party in Idaho is already asking the gov. NOT to name the Lt. Gov., but to appoint an elder statesman to finish out Craig's term because it wouldn't be fair to appt. the Lt. Gov. --per Fox news on Brit Hume Spec. Report. They don't want a headstart on the Senate Race for Risch next year.
You have to hand it to the Dems for having brass balls. I just wish some Repubs would have a transplant.

"The head of the Dem party in Idaho is already asking the gov. NOT to name the Lt. Gov., but to appoint an elder statesman..."Fine. Let the democrats nominate an "elder statesman" for president, rather than the junior senator from NY, and the Governor can do likewise with the appointment to Craig's Senate seat. Let the democrats put up or shut up.
