These assholes will stoop to the depths of hell to accomplish their goals. Corey Stapleton wasted our time and tax dollars sending out a voter information booklet that was riddled with errors. He sent out a correction - at our expense - in the same format as dozens of political mailers from various candidates that were likely cast aside and unnoticed. If we survive this election, Stapleton needs to be on the chopping block.

We do need a clean sweep, don't we? Lots of press about Gianforte leading Williams over in this part of the state. I hope it isn't true but it probably is. If we could just get Congress back, we could focus some energy on cleaning up Montana. It feels like it is spinning out of control lately.

If we don't gain ground they will be even noisier. If we win, they (the base) will lose their minds and any constraint they have left. I never thought that winning would scare me.

Something's got to give. We need a bombshell from Mueller, an arrest of the bombing suspect that proves to be a deplorable, cholesterol doing it's work on the pResident...something.

I'm breathing deeply and I know you are too. So glad you're here on DU GemDigger.

flak jackets.

Thank you MontanaMama. This is a nice place to be. The place I was on for several years closed down the month before the election of DT. Gah! That was horrible timing and it took me this long to find another home that I felt comfortable in.
