especially Texas had interview after interview boasting how they could spot a fake cowboy. Guess they were wrong about that too.
Get Trump to throw on a "cowboy hat" (from what I understand that is a modern invention also) and they'd swear he was the second coming of Wyatt Earp.

He's been quiet of late and it has worried me. Then again, I don't watch local TV. Rosendale advertises a lot during MSNBC prime time and I'll bet he does non-stop on faux. I don't necessarily support the criticism that "out of staters" get here in Montana but it is definitely a thing up here so this may be very effective. Further, Rosendale lying about what he does for a living means he could lie about anything.

there is such a noticeable difference in the commercials between the two. Class v lies and bs. Tester is like a fine wine and getting better all the time.


On a side note, I had to chuckle one time when a letter to the editor wrote a lengthy rant about him cussing in an ad. He said "damn right I will!"

I'm happy to hear Senator Tester has a positive media presence. I saw Moscow Mitch say that the race in Montana was a dead heat and while I am taking nothing for granted, I can't imagine it is true. There's a couple of signs for Rosendale over here in Blue Missoula but they are posted on notorious local nut jobs' places. I recently drove to Great Falls and saw Tester signs the whole way. Hopeful that is a good sign.

I will give Shep Smith from Fox a hat tip though. For the past month or so I have been trying to catch the first few minutes of his show and he is really laying out the truth to his viewers. I am hoping that there are enough people actually absorbing what he is saying and that it is making a difference.

I do not know why, but I never thought to look it up. The legitimacy of the Dubya and Reagan claims of any ranch ownership. Cattle, hogs, or horses. I do not care. Put something on that land and it makes the claim legit.
