This has been quite a discussion at the Lumberyard lately - the race between Denny Rehberg, our lone Representative in the US House, and Jon Tester, our Junior Senator in the US Senate.
If the election was held next Tuesday, Denny wins 57-43 or worse.
Why?
Several reasons -
(1) Denny is popular in Montana. Just 10 months ago, the Dems had all the same issues with Denny, and put up the best candidate they could buy, and Denny mopped up the canvas with him.
(2) Tester cast the deciding vote on Obamacare - twice. This horrible law, which the majority of Americans don't want would not have passed without Testers approval. If he would have voted 'NO' it would have went down. And before the election, I expect the Supreme Court to agree with the majority of Americans and strike the law down.
(3) According to the Washington Post, Tester has voted 90+ percent with Reid/Pelosi/Obama. He is the perfect lackey, who's probably made a deal - votes for re-election money. We'll see where the money comes from and find out, won't we ?
(4) Obama. This election is going the be a referendum on The Great Leader, The Messiah, The Protector of the Poor, the post racial, post partisan man-god, Barack Hussein Obama.
Any Democrat who has openly supported his radical agenda is going to face the wrath of the voters. And the far-left of the Dems, who are upset because Obama has continued the policies of President Bush, think Obama isn't liberal enough, and have no enthusiasm., which equals low Dem turnout.
(5) Testers lies will come back to haunt him. There are lots of news clips, of Tester slandering Senator Burns, and promising to vote to end the wars, or grandly stating how much he didn't support earmarks period, at least until Harry Reid told him to vote for them.
So if the Dems continue the same tired attacks on Denny, and the GOP has aggressive advertising, all the PAC money in DC won't be able to buy Tester another term.
