When I write, I’m right.
May 23rd, 2008 by Wiley CodyI commented before that seventh-string candidate Jim Hunt, sacrificial lamb for the Montana Democrat Party, was going to have some trouble raising money once the low-hanging fruit was harvested. And, I was right. Rehberg outraised Hunt 2-1 last quarter - in a political environment that hasn’t been favoring Republican fundraising.
After a poor showing in Montana, it looks like Hunt is taking a page out of Baucus’ play book and looking for out-of-state money. A desperate plea at Daily Kos - the notoriously liberal site that once celebrated American deaths in Iraq - will give you some idea of the type of people Hunt is trying to convince he has a chance - ’cause Montana just ain’t buying it.
