| The other day, Matt set up the battle for the leadership of the Montana Republican party - essentially it was a fight between the "establishment" party represented by Will Deschamps, and the, well, the "outsiders" represented by Rick Breckenridge.
Deschamps won:
Hard-line conservatives seeking strict adherence to core principles lost their bid to put an ally in charge of the Montana Republican Party, as the GOP instead chose a candidate Friday who promised to appeal to a broader audience.
Man! Just think! The state Republican party could have had a fervent anti-gay, anti-abortion, tea-baggin', silver standard political agenda! That would have been polical gold! For the Democrats, that is.
Still, I'm glad state Republicans chose "moderation" over extremism. (Deschamps is hardly a "moderate," of course.) It's a nice sign from a party that's been backsliding steadily into the radical right that it may still have some useful ideas to contribute to the state... |
