We have a goal of putting Democratic Idaho Senate candidate Larry LaRocco over the $500 mark for contributions on the page by the end of this weekend.  We're at $481.  Just $19 away!

If you can chip in and put us over the $500 mark, that would be very much appreciated!

(We're also only $20 from the $500 mark for Democratic Texas Senate candidate Rick Noriega and $99 away from the $2,000 mark for Democratic Oklahoma Senate candidate Andrew Rice, if you're able to chip in.  Again, thanks SO much!)

ID-Sen & MT-Sen: Rammell & Lange in the Press: More Bad News for Lange

As many of you know, disgraced Republican Mike Lange entered the Montana Senate race last Friday.  Why on earth did he announce on a Friday?  So he could enjoy all that sexy Saturday press that no one would read, of course.  It's like Lange said, 'Bob Schaffer in Colorado had a stumbling, embarrassing entry into his Senate race. Let's copy that!'

Then, earlier this week, Republican rancher Rex Rammell announced that he would be entering the Idaho Senate race, regardless of primary challengers, and seemingly expecting a Larry Craig retirement and a Jim Risch entry (with which I agree).  Anyway, it appears that, despite Rammell being far less known in Idaho than Lange is in Montana, and despite the fact that Rammell will be a primary underdog while Lange could very well be the Republican nominee-to-be, it seems that Rammell got more positive press for his Senate race entry than Lange did for his.

Makes Lange look pretty bad by comparison and his nascent campaign pretty inept.  Just food for thought.
