So I'm told from a close acquaintance who lives in Idaho, that everybody in Idaho knew he was gay.....and they've known it for years...and they're glad he's gone. Course she's a democrat...and according to her Idaho is such a republican state that a republican could commit murder and he/she would get elected. anyway.....
So this is what I have to put up with....I kept quiet, and never even brought up Clinton's rape accussations.
I'm glad he's going (not yet gone) because I'm tired of his pro illegal alien pattern of behavior. His pro 2nd amendment record was good, but he wasn't always as careful as he should have been. That bill to protect the gun dealers from frivilous lawsuits was left wide open to lots of anti-gun amendments. Craig had to pull the bill to avoid being the author of a major league disaster for 2nd amendment rights.
The local news indicates that Jim Risch will be the replacement appoint by Gov Butch Otter. Risch hasn't always been seen as a solid conservative...especially by some of the local conservative talk radio types in eastern Idaho. The Democrats wanted a nameless, faceless nobody to be selected to replace Craig so they wouldn't have to run against a well known incumbent. Tough. They are the minority party in Idaho. When they successfully elect a challenger, they can start making some demands.
