Balanced analysis. I was the guide for much of what he talks about.

Thank you for sharing. If I could vote in the MT election from KY, I would do it in a heartbeat. You don't happen to have an extra vote by mail ballot do you?

Good read, bigsky. I hope Sheehy wins that Senate seat.

Update: Tester may lead. Spending many tens of millions in negative ads is working for Tester.

Tester said his election loss was all Kamala's fault.

[bigsky]

Nope. Tester is on record as saying Biden's just great! He was completely exposed as pretending to be a moderate at home and voting with Schumer in DC. His coming out in support of first a perfectly fine Biden and then Kamala is HIS fault.

I am a regular viewer and listener of the discussion of economic policy on the Kudlow show. bigsky he had your senator on the show answering questions and contributing to discussion of the current need for action in the Senate. I was impressed with Senator Shehee. He did not have time to dig deeply into monetary policy, but it was easy to see that he was going to work hard to help the President and his administrative staff accomplish the goals promised in the campaign platform.

I like him.

The other MT Senator, Steve Daines, is a personal friend. Not an acquaintance. His dad built one of my houses I lived in for over a decade. His late sister and Mother were in one of my campaign advertisements. I was in his tv ads two campaigns in a row. We raised our young families next door to each other. We call each other.

So he's "my Senator".

I don't know Sheehy even to spell his name correctly, which I guessed at here, but have met him a few times. He and both MT representatives are combat veterans. It's is impressive to see the three of them together representing Montana. Steve Daines is now the elder statesman and I'm just elder.

UPDATES: Former Senator Tester is now a political commenter on MSNBC. He and Morning Joe should be able to interview the "perfectly fine" former President Joe Biden, or at least all get together with their CNN colleague Tapper writing the book and compare "we wuz misled" notes about lying to the American people about Joe's mental competency. Who was the decision making nuclear football carrying President those four years?

[dan_bgblue]

I figure the acting Pres had the football locked up with a skull and cross bones logo on the safe with a message that said do not open.

I figure the acting Pres had the football locked up ...

Dr Jill?

Presidential power by committee?

Presidential power by committee?

That was done with Woodrow Wilson after he had his stroke that basically incapacitated him, with his wife acting in his stead until his term expired. At least that's what the history books say, if you can believe them.

[dan_bgblue]

At lest they were up front about it. We still do not know who was pulling the strings for the last 3 years.
