The Starter is out on the truck

Aplogies to O'Reillys for borrowing the picture of a starter from their website.

It's kind of an odd title for a political blog, but I'll tell you why it's there, and you'll get it.

I promise.

First, my 1987 K10 Blazer is sitting up on jackstands, with the front wheels off, the skid plates and a crossmember underneath it, because the starter failed on it, and I have the part up at the Starter & Generator shop being rebuilt.

I could buy a generic rebuilt one for a little less money at NAPA, O'Reilly's, or Bumper to Bumper, but dangit, that starter lasted for 23 years, until the brushes were wore down to the holders, and the holders were cutting into the armature, so I decided to keep it.

So the truck won't start, won't crank, or even click.

The reason that you're reading this on my blog, is because I was sitting down tonight to see just how bad things are for Dennis McDonald in his race against Denny Rehberg.

I think the "starter" is out on their campaign.

In eight (8) weeks, the mail in ballots go out, and this race is over.

The only speculation there is right now, is how bad McDonald will get thumped.

I'm thinking 69% - 31%.

Really.

There are no ads, no flyers, and even less enthusiasm from the Dems.

Denny is plugging along, doing his customary great job, and cruising to a victory.

Tell me lurkers, why aren't you fired up about this race?

Or if you are, tell me why.
