Schweitzer did better than Biden, Bayh, and Vilsack -- COMBINED.

This is ludicrous. He comes from a state with THREE (3) !!! electoral college votes. He has no name ID other than liberal blogs and ZERO (0) !!! experience other than his very short time as Governor of Montana. Really...why are you all in love with this guy???

He's not Biden, Bayh, Vilsack, Hillary or Warner. What other reason would any rational person need?

How could I forget? He's also not Kerry.

He would be a good candidate. But in 2012 or 2016

The attraction of a Westerner is what Dean saw in a "Western strategy" -- that there are enough people in the Republican coalition angry about government intrusiveness into our private lives to make a tactic of running a pro-civil liberties fiscal-conservative, libertarian-edged Democrat from the West as an attractive option and capable of splitting the "Don't-Tread-On-Me" Republicans off. The number of electoral votes of MT don't matter, it is in upsetting the Republican's electoral apple cart.

But after all is said and done, I'd rather have Feingold. At the end of the day, the courage of your convictions is what matters and not your birthplace.
