I voted for Wicks. I met him several years ago and he seems like a good guy. | |||

Is that like a third option? I thought it was a two man race - Gianforte versus Quist? “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” - John Adams | |||

Unfortunately you actually voted for Quist, and feel good about it. Congrats. "Practice like you want to play in the game" | |||

Surely to God there was a third option, maybe a Libertarian running. No way a member here would vote to give control of the House to the democrats so they can push their anti-gun, anti-liberty agenda. No way. “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” - John Adams | |||

C'mon BJ, you know the drill. Don't play dumb.  and I agree about both being clown's and they are best MT. could muster, good grief. "Practice like you want to play in the game" | |||

Just trying to give the benefit of the doubt. Surely to God people know that their individual representative really does not matter because everything (especially in the House) is based on who the majority party is. A vote for your local 'good guy' democrat is a vote for Nancy Pelosi and the uber left agenda. No way around that. I figure most everyone would know that by now. “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” - John Adams | |||

Wicks is the Libertarian candidate. After yesterday's altercation I don't see how anybody could vote for Gianforte. If he can't handle a over zealous reporter then he has no business representing me. But I would have voted for Wicks regardless. Like I said, I know the man. He has a ranch in my area. | |||

Bingo! At least it wasn't for the democrat...Voting for the libertarian is like staying home, much better than voting for Nancy Pelosi! “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” - John Adams | |||

I did. Just this afternoon. Not a chance in hell that I'd vote for the dope smoking hippy and a third party vote is a vote for the democrats. Easy choice here. ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil." Doug Patton. | |||

I cast my secret ballet two weeks ago for Gianforte. If I were to do it today, my vote wouldn't change. There's always more to the story. Maybe we need more people to get pissed. I know Quist and really like his music. That doesn't make him a Congressman.

Ah, to work in media where facts are irrelevant, and the 'narrative' is the goal. Prediction: Spin if it's a D victory: "Early sign of 2018 wave election in formerly bright-red Montana." Spin if it's a R victory: "Trump supporters elect a violent crazy man." See, if you have the media behind you, even a loss helps the 'narrative' If the choice is someone who supports the progressive agenda, and someone that has less-than-superhuman tolerance for being pushed around.....the choice is still obvious. | |||

So this evening I watched CBS evening news with Scott Pelly (gdc). They did a self righteous thing on the "assault" and then in unusual fairness, they interviewed 2 "voters". The communist was a presentable looking lady with her young son who rambled on about how you shouldn't hit others. Then for the Patriotic interviewee they selected a kind of disheveled old guy who said the reports wouldn't change his vote. He said he didn't trust the media. Right there on CBS, the leftist station.  I would have been more impressed had he punched out their reporter. There are many ways to lie. One is to bias your question. Another is to select a less sightly respondent. That shit doesn't work on me. I look for their bias and lies.Unhappy ammo seeker | |||

No, not really. It was a vote for Pelosi and her ilk. But tell your story as you wish. If you can sleep at night. That is all that matters, so to speak. "Practice like you want to play in the game" | |||

I'm not saying I would do that - the stakes are way too high right now. For me, any vote for the democrat or withholding support for the republican is bad, but if you're not going to support the republican at least stay home or throw your vote away on a third party. “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” - John Adams | |||

When I listed to the recording I thought that the reporter sounded incredibly calm for someone being assaulted. It did not sound like a guy protesting being assaulted, but reading from a script..He seemed to be pretty lucid and was ready to be recorded, calmly commenting about his broken glasses, as if hed planned it. A commentator on Fox said "that guy needs better security..the reporter shoudjl never have gotten that clsoe to him"

If he's got any sense, he'll make sure to go to the press through a press secretary or something for the next two years and do all his in-person talking directly to the public. At any rate, congratulations to Montana! For anyone who happens to know, is Missoula really all that much of a hippie town? | |||

Ahhhh-hahahahahaha! Still winning. Awesome. I wish one of our congress critters would beat up a reporter or ten. I'm jealous. The libs are getting desperate for a win. Any win, and so far they've come up empty on all fronts. | |||
