Back in 2006 the GOP basically gave up on supporting Sen. Conrad Burns due to unfounded allegations of ties to Jack Abramoff which have since found to be groundless.
This also brings to questions rumors of an Operation Montana Chaos where supporters for Sen. Max Baucus crossed over and voted in the GOP primary for the weakest candidat Bob Kelleher who has run for office as member of the Green Party, Libertarian Party and Democrat party in the past.

Isn't this the same governor who at the Democrat convention in Denver told Fox news that they were just a bunch of ignorant somethings?
Can someone repeat what he said because it was rather harsh against Fox.
BTW; Isn't he a rather fat little turd looking fellow.

Hall said Schweitzer boasted in the speech that "he designed a plan to threaten poll watchers on Indian reservations, personally applied pressure to the elections officer in Butte/Silver Bow while the votes were being tabulated and manipulated the media for purposes of diminishing a call for a recount." Schweitzer apologized Wednesday for these remarks in his speech to the American Association for Justice and denied interfering in the election.
First many criminals are caught after bragging about their crime. Two this man has no respect for Montanans to say something like this if he did not do it. Shameful either way.

"I was just joking around and making it colorful," Schweitzer said. "I can now see it was offensive to some people, and Im deeply sorry if I offended anyone."

I thought Obama was “organizing” in Illinios, not Montana.

"Schweitzer told the group that Democrats wanted to make sure American Indians turned out to vote because they generally vote Democratic. " Just an aside:
I wonder How Todd Palin being a native American affects all this?

Did you see Schweitzer speak at the Democrat Convention?
I just happened to flip on the tube and there he was.
What a buffoon.
