I grew up in Conrad. Half the time, anyway, we summered in Kevin! So ordinarily I post as Rimrock, unless it's "controversial" stuff. We've gravitated to the Bozone, but I still read the Independent, and it was priceless last spring when Llew's legislative report said one of the Bozemaniacs told him he was "working on behalf of the devil". Oh... I can't help it. It still gives me the giggles. Anyway, I've been around both types, and I'll take Hi-Liners anytime. Hi Doug (and everyone else)

There was a concerted effort by a very small, very passionate group of Libertarians to fill precinct positions for the Republican party in order to try to pull off some sort of coup. The caucus results certainly reflected that effort - as unsuccessful as it was. It does not, however, reflect the views of the mainstream of Montana Republicans, or of the general Montana electorate. These guys are flippin' out of their minds and need to get out of the Republican Party! We'll keep the likes of Jones, O'Hara, Lewis, Ward, and the rest of the "socialist incumbents" over Koopman any day!

I too know Llew Jones - twice the politician and man in my book... I hope the rest of the Republican party thinks long and hard about partisan splitters like this. What does the party want? Leaders or dividers? Koopman forgets this is a big state, whose party ideology varies... via the constituents that elect those politicians with ideas in. I guess, in that sense, he's calling the folks that voted his "fun list" in as Socialists. Interesting approach, to spit on the voters like that - I'll await the results of his Big Idea in the coming election. I think party members are getting tired of this sort of BS.
